thursday 11:56pm it knows us. the moment does. fish caught. the hooks still
in their mouths. gasping for breath in a world that doesn't allow. i hear
and am afraid to be heard. afraid to listen. that i will need to hear more and
will only be left with this silence. if i let it become real, then i will
want it. and it will not want me. it tries us. time does. with words and
pauses. so flawed. so apt to hurt them before we hurt eachother. it was
good to know again. to feel that you're alive. both outside my life and within
it. but i can't put that lightning bug in a jar. it belongs out there. illuminating
other pockets of darkness. this pocket. it has too many holes in it.
