Uncertainty

nothing at all
snapshots of myself
and i can hardly breathe
the only thing left
the only thing more
is what might
be left of me
within infinite stars
and zip codes and bars
there are billions of
people to see
within the darkness
of heart
and a hopeful
head start
there is only one
for me.
care to describe
to witness to writhe
over something so far
unseen
but if that is the truth
then i’ve wasted my youth
waiting for
uncertainty.
