al one.

just for today, id like to sit in the allconsuming dark.
leave the windows and curtains shut
and remain in the air heavy with last night.
the air weighed with sleep and dreams,
with my inability to understand sooner.

of all the things i thought id be able to grasp; past, present and future,
this is not what i expected myself to lack.
im so sorry.

just for today, id like to sit in the allconsuming dark.
to forget the fact that the world is moving too fast for me,
ignore my body’s need for fresh air.

just today.
i need to be empty.
empty like you.
