here i am again, sitting in this same dark room with fingertips flying on a friday night sitting here wishing i wasnt; staring at a screen and cursing under my breath, flinging words around the walls of my mind like a frenzied baker my life is the stuff you never read about, the stuff people write and then furtively tuck away under mattresses under years of dusty grudges i never asked to be born here, to be wedged so tightly between walls of loneliness and suffocation in a room that shrinks with every breath i take, every word i say... i couldn't explain why i stay in a thousand words; perhaps in one (lost); i cant find my way home, the door at the end of the hall that keeps growing every time i pray... finding solace in symmetry, i walk circles, figure-eights, pretty magic in my footsteps to pass the yearning days... and all at once, i dream awake and scream away the night and step out of the circle to find the walls fast approaching... sitting, i collect my thoughts and let the words that hang like angry fruit from the branches of my disease fall rotten to the floor: i wasnt hungry anyhow. |
