Uninterrupted

It felt complete
Because nothing interrupted it
No distance
No closing
No one stepping away
It just continued
And I mistook that
For something solid

I see it now

It wasn’t built
It was sustained
It wasn’t rooted
It just remained

Long enough
To feel like ground

I thought if it lasted
That meant it could hold
I didn’t test it
I didn’t need to
While it kept running

Continuity
Can feel like structure

It wasn’t stable
It was uninterrupted
There’s a difference
I know it now
It wasn’t permanent
It was unchallenged

Long enough
To feel like home

Nothing moved
So I didn’t either

That was enough
Until it wasn’t
