I had a revelation about compassion and then it slipped my mind
While I was falling in and out of
This body of mine, Like a drunk In a trust catch
And a slowly spinning room
I was waiting
I was waiting
But not waiting for you
I keep wanting to be a poem like that will solve my problems
I keep weeding out the voices like I am not all of them
Nostalgia is killer so I don't care where the time went
Waiting is still water and a mosquito bite in the end
The sandman and I are fighting and he won't call me back
I haven't been writing and I think I feel sad about that
I've tried to call it living, that's what these past six months have been
And now I'm so tired, That things are starting to make sense
