life.
would it help with explaining
how life has closed in all the ***** of its metal box
around me?
it's a
pair of headphones with only one working side,
the last needed puzzle piece that is missing,
and no matching pair of socks.
it's a
string too short to tie a perfect bow with,
not enough water to fill the whole of the glass
and hidden holes in a blanket to keep you cold.
so does that help explaining how life throws
its ten pound shadow
over me?
