Speak in code
trying to not say
what I mean
Stay inside
I can hear the rain
go away
go online
see what people say
a mistake
my back hurts
I shift in my seat
it still hurts
energy within
bright face looking back at me
turn off the TV
It is dark
I should go outside
I am out
smells like ****
the smell of the air
grow from ****
side by side
suburban living
the lifestyle
what is there
under that building
I don't care
chest rattles
kick out the arches
move forward
strong tree branch
my prismatic friend
please don't break
crawl on me
I can feel your legs
treat me well
tree to tree
a slaughter of twigs
the kings loom
sit on the hard ground
uncomfortable and longing
this is all I get
