Magnets

Propelled forwards from beginning to end,

We are wind.

We are sorrow.

Wide, beautiful eyes hollowed by fights in the dark within one’s mind.

We are kind

Words to a stranger, for life was unfair.

We are air

Surrounded, suffocating, wallowing,

Waiting.

Created by life, destroyed by death,

We are breath

Rising, falling, rallying for the wail.

We are

Drowning.

We are loneliness

When surrounded,

but love,

when alone.

We are flame

Dancing, wavering,

Waiting to be tame.

Painted movements on the black canvas

of life,

We are art.

A crash of cataclysmic energy,

Thrown together and pulled apart,

We are magnets.
