still

..and I turn 26.
I do not belong and I still like it that way.
I’m a little more bruised. I’m a little wiser. Wise enough to know I’m not.
The world still spins a little too fast.
No, I do not know what I want to do.
Orion is still on time. I still need him.
I worry about them.
Happiness is still the same. Sadness too.
They still talk about the weather over tea. It’s not as cold as last year.
A stupid joke from a friend is still funnier than a good one from a stranger.
The voices haven’t changed. Much.
Still running against the wind.
The picture is still the same.
The heart of the matter is that it is a matter of the heart. Still

An emotional moment

They served momos in the mess today. They were veg momo’s , thick, dry and weren’t particularly good.
But.. they were momos.
