May 2018
10 Seconds
When you floated through my life
I couldn’t meet your eye
I was down scrubbing drenches
But your smile made me high
It hurt when I fell
Trying to reach your stunning grace
It takes more than worn hands
To touch an angels face
I wish I was everything that you deserve
But my feet are nailed to the floor
My arms hug my straight jacket
My body contorted and sore
Maybe I’ll see you again
When I fly with tinkered wings
They’ll melt if I catch you
They’re not the real thing
I saw a girl at work today
