Forever and Never
May 11, 2023
Quiet moon light.
Ambient sounds fill the dim world around me.
The water ripples with the shy wind.
I’ve been here before, many times over.
Never in the light.
Never had a clear sight.
I step towards the vintage boat house that has been in the same spots for thousands of nights.
Its old, withered bones stretch and bend with the spin of the globe.
Small cracks are not enough to bring it down.
New supports are not enough to keep it up.
Stuck in a state of limbo, never to be destroyed, never to be restored.
Doomed to an eternity of moonlight.
