Mexico 2019

Almost close

I try as hard as I can to find comfort in my mind.

I look to the moon to ponder life beyond and and the experience of the sublime.

Is it possible that there’s things I don’t know about how to unlock what is between us?

Like a chest of draws we both use,

you keep your experiences inside it, beside mine-

but never shall the two troves of understanding mingle nor meet.

We may come close as I show you how I wear my past

but there is no knowing what is really inside.

So I look to you- the Sublime

to move me towards feeling

my way to the answers in my mind.
