movement

a cry escaped my mouth
my mind begins to rouse
as always authenticity
leaves no room for doubt

running like being hunted
down a winding path
a slippery slope of wishes
i may never wish to get back

righting the course of life
a breeze that comes at twilight
a moment defined by time
as though it had already been decided

a respite, though brief
until reality comes back in
promises you said you’d keep
now floating on the wind

i saw life once upon a time
nearly held it in my grasp
so close it’s almost hypnotizing
but truth just floats right past

actions, whether good or bad
come back around to greed
so i let go. a statement made
and fate released me to move freely
