Poetry Friday: a thank-you note to the universe by noor unnahar

Current Mood: creative
Current Song: Old Habits Die Hard by Allie X

last night i whispered
a thank-you note to the universe
for it made oceans and stars
equally beautiful and accessible
for all of us; i breathe the same air
as the people i love and the people i lost
the particles of their existence are still
surrounding me and this is how loneliness
doesn’t know how to find me alone

- a thank-you note to the universe by noor unnahar

It's a comforting poem for us to sometimes need that comfort. Thanks!

surrounding me

That's how I feel all the time about everyone in the world. Thanks for this expression of that.
