things are getting harder
but i guess you wouldn't
really know
it's been so easy shutting you out
too easy
to go with the flow
the nights are getting longer
but no one else
really knows
it's been hard spending them alone
without your warmth
in this numbing cold
although it's getting difficult to stay afloat
it's getting easier to just keep pretending
that i belong on the bottom of this river of life
as mere
bed load
