look at you

well now sweetie look at you
got a million days anew
are you spending one by one
every day until it’s done

do you travel really far,
putting sunsets in a jar,
minding business really small:
knitting universe for all

do you wake up just to bring
heartbeat on a guitar string
lightweight luggage not to claim:
passport, toothbrush, poems, name

well now sweetie look at you
treasure box you’re clinging to
is a beat inside your head.
travel far until you’re
alive
