| You carry an illness
|
| Practically know it by name
|
| It seldom speaks for you
|
| You learned to tune it away
|
| But it wasn’t easy
|
| Was fond of your writing
|
| It allowed me to see into you
|
| You hid behind the similes
|
| Like fractal light in all shades of blue
|
| Pebbles and mirrors
|
| I’m just jealous because I tried
|
| Mapping out your mind’s inconsistent ways
|
| Tangled and untied
|
| I watched your ends start to fray
|
| You felt buried from the start, tearing you apart
|
| Constricting the free beating of your heart
|
| I knew your postcard would say
|
| «Wish you could stay, wish you felt the same way»
|
| Asked to be admitted
|
| And they put a lock on your door
|
| Subdued, medicated, face to linoleum floor
|
| And you tried to break away, painted window panes
|
| Bars behind the glass molded to the frame
|
| You saw yourself in those days
|
| You felt buried from the start, tearing you apart
|
| Constricting the free beating of your heart
|
| I knew your postcard would say
|
| «Wish you could stay, wish you felt the same way»
|
| I am
|
| Tearing up pieces of old news
|
| To mend the leaks in my open wounds
|
| Protect your pressure points, I refuse
|
| To press against, let yourself renew
|
| Project the voice that I found for you
|
| Pull up the weeds from the ground you grew
|
| Feel soil under your toes, it’s you
|
| You have forever
|
| I felt weaker when I bent, beaten to the end
|
| Folding on myself, too damaged to mend
|
| I couldn’t hold all the weight
|
| You felt buried from the start, tearing you apart
|
| Injuring yourself dragging from my arm
|
| I knew your postcard would say
|
| «I know your new heart still desires to play
|
| And who would I be to keep it all for me
|
| Wish I could stay, wish I felt the same way» |
