quiet as the sun

october 8, 2024 a project with fernando palafox

quiet as the sun
i don’t know where i’ve begun

my feet are on the path
but the eye that sees all was not designed to speak

youth of ancient descent
ancestor of the future
a paradoxical life of bounded freedom
mind outside time, yet bound by space
a hundred thousand screams of silence

whose voice do i trust, and where is my own?
window shopping for something to believe in
i thought there would be something in my nothing

i found all form created by thoughts
and they must be the cause of the knots
in my stomach, my heart, my head

i feel but i don’t touch
tour of my soul
this everlasting ride of ceaseless becoming

colors of heat splitting from the sun
keep alive the spaces they dance upon

i don’t know much about anything really
but i do know how life makes me feel
love is all you need silly
