2020 We are trying to stay the same
as the ground breaks spring
and the world ends.
Feels like a metaphor.
We are on a cliff and
I am trying to keep you safe
in this fraying net.
I should say something about
beginnings and endings
and some things never changing
but that isn’t true, isn’t it?
We are changing
every second.
I want to think
we’re different in a good way.
We are trying to start again
as everything is unraveling
your fingers in mine.
Are we scared enough
brave enough
strong enough
enough to hold on?
A very relatable conflict and
A very relatable conflict and some amazing wordplay. I particularly liked "as the ground breaks spring /and the world ends." The contrast is startling, just perfect. Love your style.
