Do I really have to?
Watch
The slow unwinding of leaves
As they fall ever so slowly from the branches
that nurtured them
dripping the elixr of life into them
whispering sweet sussurations of being
Alive
Do I really have to watch as they crumple under my feet
Gossamer thin,
brittle, jewel like dreams
Trodden underfoot as I zombie towards what must be done
Do I really have to watch the life I did not choose
rusted chains
relentlessly crumpling every dream that ever lived
Do I really have to watch?
The splatter of blood right across the wall
how exactly your face looks when it crumples with anger
how many lines there are today, that weren't there yesterday
Must I, make a mental table of categories and draw continuums
Of what exactly happened to rust my soul
Must I watch everything?
