In the Morning

Twenty feet away
and I am 
holding onto myself 
for want of 
being held

There is a void somewhere
inside of me
uncomfortable
but okay
I wait for the morning

Reaching 
unsure for what
the light is vapor
on this side
But I know

Pieces of me 
hang around
I am so afraid
of the kind of storage

Through to the end
I stand
Touching space
knowing it holds everything
even you

I do not wish 
to be filled 
I only wish to remain
a part of the movement
toward light
when the morning comes
