the sunset and the stars
I’m ceaselessly pumping the brakes on time,
trying to slow life down
before it’s gone
and I’m gone
like the sun dipping below the horizon
to leave a blank blue night
I hold each moment so tightly
that I’m surprised time hasn’t choked
Turns out my feeble will holds nothing against nature;
all I can do is learn to love both
the sunset and
the stars.
