If I could learn one single thing,

It would be

To only exist.

Not stone cold, or stone strong,

But unbothered by impermanence.

Unbothere by whether or not

I’m worth being loved.

Unbothered, whether

I’m worth nothing,

Or worth this whole entire world.

Is it not the hardest of skills;

To only exist?

To wait for nothing,

Just like the earth, or like the sky?

Not too warm, or too cold.

Watching clouds, watching rainbows;

Watching life and death play catch forever.

If I could learn one single thing,

It would be to never cry, and never smile.

I have grown so tired

Of jokes and sorrows

holding hands in front of me;

Cracking me up.
