whirlwind

it’s the whirlwind 

of days

my scattered parts 

fling to the air 

and i’m landing within

the boundaries 

of necessity and duty 

somewhere 


i step away just to find 

myself again 

sink my feet in some sand 

make a fist with my hand 

dig my nails into my skin


i’m still me 

i’m still me 

i need you to understand 


i glance out to the distant skyline 

just to prove the sky remains my friend 


i am still me 

this is still my need 

no matter where i land
