Do Not Give Up

Do not give up

I need you

To live in this world

and be you

To observe creation

and let it move you

To get the sun on your face

and let it heal you.

Theoretical Mass

Find your love

Find your peace

Find it even

away from me.

Oh, my God,

Please, may it not wreck me.

It threatens to sink whatever is left

into this black hole of reverie. 

These insides are 

a compulsion of a burst of sky

rock and debris and pain,

the wreckage behind my eyes.

I cannot even explain why,

I'm a rocket that cannot fly.
