i don’t care anymore

time never gave life to the empty words

as their pallor deteriorated into decay

that someday never lived up to its assurance 

never lived

as my timidity collapsed into tension

but the horizon coaxes me

with songs- not prospective, but enchanting. rosy hues and notes

melting into one another

falling over one another in lovely chaos

they have little answers to offer

but their silhouettes dance in the sun cast shadows

and i join them.

it never caught me when wavering doubt crumbled 

from under my feet 

my ever-rising unease melted into silence

what did it have to tell me anyway?
