Layered Fragments, Becoming Whole

Light Enough, Strong Enough

You ever feel like it’s all a joke…

We’ve created this complex landscape of feelings…

Where does it go really…

Usually, i press it down with a paper weight

The kind that’s light enough, but still… strong enough

to keep it from overflowing into the day…

I get flutters of it… butterfly kisses… barely there yet a delicate looming melancholy…

oh yes, this too shall pass…

when forced smiles become rotten positivity… And the comfort of escape whispers like a devil…

well there you have it…

Angel wings never felt so clipped… as when weighed down by paper… paper that covers the entirety of the sky…
