Orion

Moi Mendoza
Mar 30, 2023

Laid my head that’s full of misery and confusion

In this world I walked barefoot in different directions

Leaving boys and girls who then called me Orion

Singing in vain under the breeze of this unwanted season

Words were shot like an arrow in my heart

That I still choose to bury deep like a minute detail of an art

Still, it haunts me even with all my missing parts

Making me write questions that take me back from the start

Gave too many kisses and said plenty of goodbyes

Now I walk all alone on the ocean floor and dream of the night sky

Nothing I can do anymore but release a big sigh

For I dreamed of counting stars but instead I counted lies
