Because sometimes…this happens too.
Untitled
But sometimes all is darkness
And the sun that lit one hour
Is extinguished in the next.
When you face your smallness
The insignificant
Replaceable-ness
The meaningless
And least-needed void you are.
The worthless use
Of space and breath
When it doesn’t matter
If you walk the Earth,
Or lie beneath it.
And the false bravado
A flickering candle
put out.
As though
It never burned
At
All.
