Chapter 9 - Nightjar

mundane things were easy to overlook 

then change came with the new 

and the nostalgia of familiarity flooded my headspace 

with thoughts that had grown wings

who knew such things were missable?

burdens that one would hope to be gone,

and they are, yet they were crafted like paper airplanes 

every edge folded with the creativity and wanderlust of childhood

but now those things belong to the wind.

even while i ponder it inconsiderately blows them away,

sending them off,

in the direction of the moon.

maybe on my deathbed more things that i forgot will come to mind
