AT MY WORST

“A life fueled by passions is like riding on the back of a dragon.”

It’s not just a verb …
It’s a noun.

There is no simple way to describe it
like now, suddenly
like now, uprooted; from deep within.
Though I know you had been defined
still
spin so slow: that impact
an instant prayer
transported
wished for the world to end

There was nothing: no one
now it’s you
from just blackout
to just one light.
Though I know considering
feeling the begging wait
feeling hold on
and the “please?”
and where is that button?

Suddenly all at once
this raw fear to step in
the thirst to know more
of wanting
when your years and intellect:

disengaged


disregarded
specially recently
specially more

now that it’s here

now
that you are here.
