The art of losing


losing
and knowing how to is a
Mona-Lisa
painted with
every feeling you own
onto a canvas
you never knew
you had

the more you will stare
into its smile
the less you understand
reason and purpose
integrity dissolves
like an aspirin in a see-through glass
on your kitchen table
nights turn into days
days turn into nothing

your universe cracks
slowly at first
then faster and faster
until nothing else stands
on its feet

the only person you have
in the whole world
is Y O U
don’t lose it
when you lose!
