A home
what you don't know, it'll **** you in your sleep I lay for hours telling you how to breathe the air is all wrong the nails are upturned the *** sings a shrill song and the coffee burns I beg you – throw a show, I'll sit still – I'll be at peace what you don't have, is what I need our chair sits unused it's frail, it'll never last we both smile – unamused gnawing our haughty pasts
