detachment

from your knees
you look beautiful
but since the day you fell
on them, i have been sleeping a lot
i have been feeling a
little more scared of you
and it has slammed me with
a certain audacity
– a reason that carries
me away and towards –
i think it’s time
i lose some
and gain none
detach our orbits
revolve around a simpler
and better familiarity
find something
i don’t deserve
but have no one
around telling me
that i don’t
