I'm Not So Fast, Nor Am I Slow
There’s something in the air today
That makes me want to wash away
Onto shores of worlds that I’ll never see
And lands that are wrought in mystery.
It’s something I can’t easily explain,
Even if my thoughts were worth a grain
Of rye…
I’d rather die
Than let you slip away
Because I lost my grip on this rainy day
And it’s unbearable to think
That I’d actually have to think
About why you’re no longer here;
Don’t leave me, Dear.
Wallowing Willows wishfully
Consume the thoughts of misery
and transport us to nebulae
located deep in the void that we call “Space,”
But is it really space we need,
Or just some time to pray and think
about the lives we all want to lead
or the loves we all think we need?
I’m not so fast
but that’s in the past
nor am I slow
But I think it’s time you ought to know
that I wasn’t left for dead,
yet rather they just laid me to bed
where dreams can bask in my sleep
and pretend humans aren’t just sheeps.
Now shuffle,
don’t struggle,
Let life be instant and fulfilling
and don’t forget to eat your veggies.
