Another
interaction
descends
into
futility

Why do we bother trying?

I see him.
Sitting by the roadside.
With his bottle of water
as it gets
hotter and hotter.
This is his brief
moment of relief.
A part of me wants to tell him it gets better .
A part of me isn’t sure if that’s true.

I never wanted it to be more than that.
But you
broke through
all of these barriers
like warriors
whose existence
was based on fighting resistance.

Emptiness
can
be
so
filling
;
sometimes.
