Peek 👀

This absence of 
is not loneliness 
it is peace 
and the scratching 
of my pursuits 
have given way 
to silence as
though my very 
life has become 
one long sigh
and I wonder 
as I watch 
everyone scurry around 
don’t they know 
that the very
thing they chase
isn’t out there 
but in there
if only they’d 
take a peek
