I don't know how long
I can do this, he said
I think the universe
has differnt plans
for me
& we sat there in silence
& I thought to myself
that this is the thing
we all come to
& this is the thing
we all fight
& if we are lucky
enough to lose,
our lives
become beautiful
with mystery
again
& I sat there silent
because that is not
something
that can be said
~Different Plans ~ Brian Andreas (Traveling Light)
what a beautiful poem... is it from a novel? from a collection of poems?
