attachment? in a time like this?

i can only think of being held, by you, who has never held me before

i can only think of being held, by you, who will then have to let me go

i can only think of being held, by you, and then i begin to think of more consequential matters

feeling rather than touching

to be sensed, a sensation

when i walk down the street people do not notice me and they walk directly into my physical form as if it was just a memory i was reliving in a sunlit room far away from here, a ghost from my own past

gripping onto the railing, i walk down, remembering that everything that can be lost will be lost

nothing is unachievable

i have searched everywhere for it

ultraism

under no circumstances can we continue as we had before

that is the only certainty i have come to

there has never been anything to prove me wrong

voluntarily knowing i had no choice in the matter, we are all here to do our jobs

zephyr, blowing in

i see the branches of the tree swaying

i think to myself, it would be nice to be a singularity of a whole

and then i think about the people who complete me and i feel content

and then i think about losing them and i feel everything else

the branches remain unchanged, or at least not in ways that i will ever be able to understand
