The old band you loved will get its shit back together
You will feel the giddy thrill you felt at 15
Your mind is not closed to wonder and damn it you will be awestruck
There is more than terror in realization
You will dance like you danced when you didn’t know you didn’t know how to dance
You will pick flowers from a far field for your sweetheart because that is what you do
You find the flowers for the ones you love because you love them and they are there
You sing songs for you and who will hear because the birds sing for no god damn reason
Some nights you will howl because all creatures will sometimes find themselves in a howling mood
It will be beautiful, and it will be forgotten
It will be haunting
It’s once again spooky season and like the day of the dead a reminder that even Newton knew we are never alone
You will find the world sick and on fire and you will wax poetic still the same
You will drive your darling home and silly slow waltz in the haze of the flames
You will feel the sting of tears from the smoke and overwhelming love and shame
You will drive on still the same
You will find time to rekindle old things
You will stop looking for meaning
And just look
