AWARDS.


Awards

I have won all of the awards
in the world
but I have not proven them
to myself.
I find myself itching for freedom
from everything,
including the broken clock
that refuses to tell time.
The reflection in the hour glass
tells all the time in the world,
that I am not old,
that I will not die,
that no one will grieve for me.
Tornadoes spread across the county;
some people die.
Others live.
I am not sure what this means for me,
but awards will do nothing for me
when I die.
I refuse to let that happen.
