Our fingers are used for grabbing.
They grasp to things we hold dear.
A constant fear
Of dragging.

But sometimes,
We lose our grasp.
In humanity.
In reality.

Into the oceans
Of lies and deceptions.
Into the motions
Of exceptions

Our fingers yearn
To be held in respect
Yet they turn
To the extent

We learn as children
To reach for stars
But humans are too smitten
To rasp for what is ours.
