truly i've tried
and yet in vain
whilst every sigh of disappointment
further weakens my bones
and disconnected my head
from my body
from my heart
to describe the indescribable
of what i feel
and it's the feeling
of rooftop stargazing
when everything is still
so for a moment
you cross paths with death
and a nod of understanding
that leaves you with only
the desolate stars
becomes a solace
an empty hope
a content sadness
a peaceful remorse
i am now the adult
who smiles in pain
from knowing too much of what is
to come
while the child smiles
and sings all about their dream
unaware
of how quickly it will all
crumble away
and i've lost touch
with all the innocent wonder
and creative visionary
my inner child holds
my world is bittersweet
my world is still
my world is unsure of itself
what direction to take
and what it is
