My mind wanders continuously To and from the hear and now Seemingly I don’t pay attention to what you say Not true I do, in a way But thank you for talking at me When you thought I couldn’t hear
Because the rhythm of your psychoses wears upon my soul Weathering me Not like the sapphire waves beating on a jagged coastline wearing a mighty cliff into the humblest grain of sand Or anything quite that dramatic More like the way subtle occurrences can effect ones perception so powerfully And while I’m floating along From one island of idea to another I’m tethered to reality By the ironic lifeline of your madness.
