circuit

life fragments
fall into place
the sun
splintered and hurting
comes gathering its pieces
into one spectacular orb
my soul, shut down
shut up
shut out and in
completes its circuit

I load the truck
with all of my dear belongings
watch you drive away
I cannot count
another day
as unimportant

I have so much work to do
I step out into space
and it is already done
