Hollis

swimming in
sea of stone
come up for air

my language
has dried up
and let you drown

a martyr
for the words
I never found

look away
acknowledge
the setting sun

it won’t stop for no one

in my mind
in my mind
there is a reckoning
a new beginning

what I knew
I let go
and I fell through
stained in green
I was made new
to be seen
all I could do was run
till the morning sun
