Still here 10.11.18

Still here 10.11.18

Arching my head

towards the sky

I observe the fixed points

of the same winter stars

I have seen countless times before

And I am reminded

that I am still here

-

I am not ready

to go inside just yet

Now is the in-between time

and everyone else is asleep

-

All around me

the night is softly humming

I hum too -

For I am alive
