desperately

You,

you are the sun.

You exist independently of every other thing.

You,

you don’t know it.

But your mere existence

the bubbling under the surface

the chemical reaction

the movement of your life

an interpretive dance

draws them in

and in

and in

You,

you are the sun.

they need you.

Like every star,

you are slowly dying.

But shining

a blinding white hot light

that never dims until the last

labored breath before you collapse in on yourself

too much to hold

the weight you carried

every other thing.

Exhausted,

Spent,

Content.

You,

you are the sun.

do you know that every other thing

needs you?

desperately.
