It took a while

I was just about to shut it down, instantly
I know you’re in another realm, of sleep perhaps


Your body language apologetic curling yourself
Into the soft leather, fragile of mind

It is grim, a lake pooling in your eye, personal view looking
Through blurred angles, the years ahead for you are now, without interim

It will be temporary, the messy uncertainty
Clamouring and digesting your escape

I know you don’t single out this continuation
To rule, I don’t blame you for that

I wonder if you could step out from your inner turmoil
Use the learning chapter, working between the lines of life

The full stops to become commas... of pause
Not trying for perfection

You’ll never make it
