The Next Day Compromise
Made it, it's another day.
Despite the crippling notions,
Suppressive rain drenching my head,
Detail-oriented accounts of you,
Hours locked in a bed.
Another day.
Food degrading to ash,
Your voice inside my cortex,
Gutting emotions,
A dull machete
"Just give me what's next"
It's another day
Hauntings, a ghostly other lover,
Begging to sleep between,
Because to me there is no other,
"Don't forget me" was said
Thank God, another day
Pleading up a universe,
Disintegrate all agony,
If only for a minute, "let me sleep"
"Let me believe I can feel again in my dreams"
A morrow makes a heart mend, right?
So far, another day
The next day compromise.
Heal it, heal it all!
