It’s the one promise I can count on
Isn’t it?
If I feel uneasy, and say to the Sun
You’ll come back right?
He always will
Usually he says
I’m not going anywhere
But great beings don’t understand distance to something like me
Tiny and swallowed up the the Earth
Yet
When he returns he has this tinge
This “Come stand in me” tinge
Is it colour?
Is it the light missing the people it sees?
Whatever it is I oblige
Behind the tree
Will you be back before I move?
So uneasy these feet with no place to land
And I didn’t jump, the earth was taken from beneath my feet
I used to give my landlord a pass
He was decent and he was creating housing by having his basement for rent
It never occurred to me that after 7 years it would just be like
Yeah you’re out in four, three, two months
Unceremoniously tossed out
I keep begging out into the space around me
Someone find me something
But, you know, currently without what feels like a home because my was a home feels like it’s just slipped so far from my reach
I am now temporary and it will exist long past my exit
Not mine in the slightest
This illusion of possession
What I had fooled myself into feeling was mine was just another passing through moment
At least every Sun beam feels like home
Terrified of the unknown
I know what I imagine
It’ll only be worse
But I stand in the Sun
And it’s familiar, warm, excited to have found me
I can imagine it and it’s exactly that
Maybe because I’m remembering and not creating the future
How to?
Is it my fault for not knowing how to make it open in my vision?
If the future would open
I want to finally find home
Sorry Sol
Coming to you is coming home
But I can’t follow you to stay there
