In Youth We Learn

I wonder

I feel stranded, caught up - not here, not there, not anywhere. I wonder whether you’ve got my best interests at heart, as i turn the pages and still feel that something’s fallen short, something’s not complete. This thirst lives on, like a question that runs in circles, chasing up tails. I wonder how things would have turned out - the opportunities to grow, to learn, to live - and how different i would be today. I don’t know if i’ll ever feel un-shortchanged.

Yet, sometimes i wonder if i ever deserved anything at all.

when time and space are through, i'll dwell in you.
