Five

I want to watch the universe expand i want to
Break it into pieces small
Enough to understand
And put it all back together
Again in the quiet
Of my private collection it feels like an
Out-of-body experience but something
Gets lost from a safe distance and now I
Can’t put my mind to rest
And I can’t help but second guess living
Behind this one-way mirror i’m hypnotized by
This anomaly such strange uncharted
Territory a white flag
Waves in the dark between my head
And my heart my armor falls apart, as
If I could let myself be seen
Even deeply known like
I was already brave enough to let go and now
I want to generously lose this energy that
I’ve been hanging onto so
Desperately i finally feel
The universe expand it’s
Hidden in heartbeats
Exhales and in the hope of open hands
