Spacey
space
is my final resting place.
It is where I struggle in haste,
where I swim without grace,
never going here or there -
never going anywhere.
A penny for your thoughts?
I'd pay a dime to have one.
Instead I'll just sit here
and feel like a bum
as I stare at the sun...
...till my eyes go blind
but I won't really mind
because I've wasted my sight
on hating this body that's mine.
so now all that will lie
is all that's behind.
But alas I am beat -
my eyes begin to weep.
my eyelids slam close
because the body always knows
the best way to go
when the brain tries to oppose.
So myself wouldn't let me
stare at the sun for too long,
and now here I am
turning my empty head into a song...
but looking back now
I think I got it all wrong.
