perpetual motion sonnet

let the sun

break your heart

let nothing and

no one win

this is the moment where

                    my life begins
                             and then
this is the one that matters

this is the bridge we

stand beneath and this is
the song always playing in
the back of my mind

small lies to help hold

together broken truths

the rest of our lives

multiplied by zero and i am
trying here and i
am failing
 

i am thirty years older

than i was and i am
that much more lost

am dreaming of ash and

resin and the slow
stain of frostbite

and we were so sure it

would always be
summer
