lost by Ross Vassilev

the stars are
drunk


and this moth
circling the room
is even more lost
than I am.


my family came
to America when
I was 3

before that
I had a country
to call home


but with the fall
of Communism
that country
is gone now
forever.


it starts to rain
outside as
the moth tells
me about fate


and things lost
and left behind.
