Love is a big place
an easy find
a quick escalator
ride. Soul fried from
all the times we
tried to get by
with empty insides.
Think you need a
pair of eyes to tell
you it’s alright but
come get high and
you’ll find your own
way to the moon,
glide through the
sky, let those below
apologize for all
the nothing they got
right. Don’t lose
sight of the heights
you’re headed to,
lift-off and float
through the right
you carry, you learned
to bury you shoveled
you sheltered you sweltered
beneath, eyes down at
your feet, as though you
were the lucky one.
