Palms Lose - Casey Mecija

She said it’s dangerous, the isolation of a dream

When we know ourselves too well, it’s

Diminishing

We cannot mark it.

We’re told to burn the text

And not get stranded on a word and forget

What’s gone must resume

We suffer, palms lose

I’ll side with what soothes

It changes, palms lose

She said it’s dangerous, the isolation of a dream
