Not Quite Right
Once or so will do
The word cuts short
But the feelings lie true
Like a shifting twig against the skin
You’ll remember
With a fresh, visual sense of thin
Thin doesn’t quite fit
Unless you scream yourself in
Or score the hollow pit
But I meant to say goodbye
Even though I seethe
An actual bye
The rage is uncanny
I fall apart from truth
I can’t rely inside it’s insanity
