metanoia

mocha and astronauts

sitting here
in this coffee shop
i wonder if i am good enough

i wonder if i can reach the skies and above
like an astronaut blasting into the air

do you know they travel twenty times the speed of sound

i feel like i'm in that rocket

i am going 17,600 miles per hour.

to reach my dreams
and i don't know how to slow down

i travel into the darkness and there's nothing but space around me

space

i see
nothing

for years i see nothing
i am alone
but a speck in this galaxy

and all i can see

is space

i am a star
a ball of hot air in the middle of nowhere.
the poster child for good and happy things.
scared and extravagant,
large and alone

i am a star
i am an astronaut

i am

sitting in a coffee shop
reflecting
and

you are enough

-i am enough
