How do you feel
When the feeling is too much

What do you know
Will you be all right

One moment we’re dreaming
The next we’re breaking

Burning, fractured, fading, gutted
Spilling open
Losing hope, and
Forgetting
How to reach

Our bodies far away
Our minds something we placate

How will you grow
When the world around you dies

Who will you be
Where can we all go

Count the stars
Map new charts

Believe there’s something more to find
Blink
Breathe
Move
And count again

Are you feeling now

Can we learn why tonight

~*~

We are questioning our purpose
We are weighing our worth
We are looking, deeply, into ourselves
And finding us wanting

Remember that suffering gives us an opportunity to find meaning.
Remember to look, even as our eyes are struggling to adjust to the darkness.
Remember that we are chemistr(e) in motion~
