sometimes
no matter what you have gained,
or what you have lost;
no matter what you do,
or do do do not do;
no matter what you try,
or what you fear;
no matter who you are with,
or who lives in you
realer in their absence
then they ever did
in your every day life;
no matter what you gained
or finally lost...
every once in a while
you don't look away
and allow yourself to understand
that the so-called soul has vacated the premises,
the concept of "unique" is just another childhood lie,
and all you really are now is
everything
you
can't
have.
