Fortify
when everything's made
to be broken
i just want you to know
who i am
- "iris," the googoo dolls
How do you build
a strong wall
that does not crumble
impenetrable
as of a fort
shielded from elements
that corrode?
You can't.
How do you live
in a deserted island
uncharted by friendships
unmapped by experience
whether intended or not?
You can't. You just can't.
So now,
how do you fortify
yourself
from the longing
and the absence?
How do you fortify
yourself
from the tangible distance
and the mental presence?
You don't. You just don't.
In the end,
the end of it all,
perhaps you're just
that comet
that never came
to pass.
