Strange

The way that life can shift

How one breath

Redraws an entire map

Of who you are

An inhale

Still trying

Hoping

Convincing myself

That the almost 

Was close enough

The exhale 

And it wasn't

Clarity came

In the wind

Going through rooms

Clearing it out 

Every illusion

Id cling to

Realizing 

I shouldn't stay

Don't have to shrink

Carrying thing i dont need to 

things that were never mine

Everything being changed 

In single breathes

Not cause the world did

But because i opened my eyes
