distractions unravel in front of you

to send you back to the point where you had no power

no choice

don’t believe it

don’t let it tug at your sleeve

don’t let it irk you

find the silence

find the rocks to grip down the edge

as you move 

ever closer

think about the blanket of stars that cover the sky

and though the distractions may pound and thump 

shaking the floor you stand on

you can sit peacefully

knowing the true destination
