41

eggshell fragile
with new skin
freshly shedding the old
sitting here in the sun
not brave enough yet to venture
recalling all the things
that I thought made me
and suddenly realizing
I'm none
I'm only this
 bare
 naked
 new
nearing the last days
but always just born
still discovering
everything around me
is awe and luxury
always
 still so new
 standing on this earth
 I can never be old
forever just a child
 confused
 seeking
 lonely
hoping for the answers
and realizing I have none
