goodbye girl

how long does it take 

for you to forget 

that look i gave 

that thing we said?

how long until 

you won’t remember 

that shared joke 

or that book we read?

little one

a wonderful world awaits you 

in that distant beautiful future time 

and i’ll meet you some sweet moment 

on that brilliant journey of the other side 

- les’nspired 

safety line

the silk thread 

of the tiniest silkworm

is a sure safety line 

to catch his fall 

he hangs upon my finger

and i marvel a bit

why must this creature 

be saved at all?
