Time

[littleprince]

if i could reach you
and show you
my fear
i would open your eyes
like the vastness that I would fade
into
and gripped by every single droplet
of humidity like a strangle
that tears me from you
i tremble with yearning
and fall into the light
tumbling through the nothingness
so that I can catch up with reality
and my arms that once held you
now reach out to find you
