NaPoWriMo 2023 — Day 25: “Lifeboat”



25. Lifeboat

thinking too much
about how I donโ€™t
know much, but there
is still meaning
in every story,
both the shared
& the hidden

we are each a
thread in the
tapestry, even
though we all
may be unraveling,
weโ€™re still traveling
the rivers & roads
that lead
to somewhere

in hope, despair,
in love, in tragedy
we always seem
to somehow
make it there

until we cease,
until the blessed,
final release
