Feeling more alien than human,
so far removed from
who I am.
An explorer in a sea of endless life
and dying. Living as I go.
Oh, I feel alive,
though not in any way I’ve ever known.
This world shows so much,
not all of it beautiful.
The face plant, the soft touch;
alive, living, actual.
All I have seen
makes me feel my humanity
and question how human
are those around me.
Seeking something worth finding,
so simple.
Takes me away from this place,
drawing power within myself.
I’m trying to see
where I belong here…
if I belong here…
