The day had promise

For 2.45 seconds

Until my mind

Caught up with me

I can feel the pulse of life

Beating hard against my chest

From the other side of this flesh

I may never catch up

To the good you are

My shooting star

If you're losing faith

In the things that sustain us

Go deeper, my friend

There's always an adult human

Available to blame

For every problem in the world

I'm falling

endlessly

into winter
