'Re-Watching the Tonys' by Ravyn LaRue


I know one cannot repeat the past
And when one tries
It leads to downfall, surely
Still the current state I'm in
Leaves my mind, heart and soul
Longing for the former times
And my heart beats in a mad fiendish way
And though my friends are spread out in the universe
Like unfathomable stars
We are still a constellation
At least in my heavy beating heart
For I know though I shot skyward so sincerely
I need to return to the universe I was spawned in
And I love you all so much
I watch award ceremonies on my aching lap and laptop
Knowing you deserve golden trinkets allotted for good art
We are a brilliant bunch
And though they claim their selves as artists here
I cannot be fooled
Since I know what authenticity looks like
And you all had it and surely have it still
I know I must return to the intensity of closeness that exists there
And though I may be pining for the past
My future looks empty if I stay
So I mustn't
That's all there is to it
