in between the lines of the sun and the sky are veins worth tracing

living afloat

yet shining through

i think peace is a dream

it is one worth chasing

peace is what we make it and i think our drifting hearts bring the stars closer to us

i think peace is knowing the inevitable

and even when not

peace is surrounding light in between our eyes

the bridge of our skin and the memories we hold

peace is laying here

occupying myself and thinking

‘if the stars are so meaningful why are they so out of reach?’

and i believe

peace would be holding a star and kissing it’s skin

gripping it tighter as it pulls me above

drifting with it would be like floating with a presence of someone’s heart

free yet trapped

loving yet hurting

all at the same time

all at once

peace is the sky

peace is the warmth of our bones and our damp hearts

stars are our most sacred secrets and drifting in between feels like life is being filled with endless possibilities

what a world we have created in our own hands

i can’t imagine how many more years of this we have
