[fourleftfeet]

don’t ask me what i think

Another day passes and I’m still here

Another day passes and I consider it all

Another day I allow myself to feel

Another day passes and I can’t explain 

Why I feel this way

Minuscule nicks pile on and my hours buy another pay 

I can see time come and go, finite in finite during our lifetimes

My thoughts create endless possibilities, but which is it now? Hurting or kind?

Another idea contradicts herself and before you blink it’s tomorrow

Honesty is an easy concept, a virtue, an honour

lies are little easier, a virtue, an honour

It’s easy to forget what life has, what life can have

But it’s difficult to trust a future made in the present

The older people get the more difficult it is to see the past

In hindsight, should’ve seen it coming

There’s no time for others when you’re drowning

Is that how it looks like from the outside?

Everybody’s caught up in water

Everybody’s caught, so how do you just dive in? 

How do you float when you can’t even swim?

How do you preach if your pool has a hole in it

When the hound bit through your last defence

Sometimes I wonder if it would be okay to say it aloud

Sometime, make space for others I waste, but i chose the wrong time

When will it be time? I don’t think I’ll find out

The biggest secret I keep with me, what’s behind

Past grade 8, I could’ve never imagined it

Past my stumble, I’m far ahead in the race

To feel needed is a privilege

To be cared for is in art

To take this out of my head is oblivion.
