When I Don’t Write

Days of silence

Piling up

Brilliance popping and then dimming

It’s light out well into the evening

Everything is awake and yet contained

Who knows when this chaos will end

Maybe never

Brimming at the edge but

Never feeling the release of water cascading down

Don’t be so hard on yourself

But on second thought maybe you should

If we can do better shouldn’t we

We don’t just need glimpses

We need the full eye shattering unavoidable

Don’t look away

Look straight on
