There’s dirt and dried lavender squished so deeply into the carpet it can probably hear the ****** screaming from hell below Similar to the roots so deeply imbedded in soil they forget there is the light of day above wanting so desperately to greet them I understand the fear of having nothing left to hide Secrecy becomes security and procrastination is a comfort Maybe I should vacuum and sage out the lurking demons But I’ve found a peace in the chaos I think I’m really scared to just hear the silence in this worn down home Because that means it’ll be time to move on And I don’t want to move or let go
