everything is temporary
everything is temporary
everything is temporary
until it's permanent
the muscles in my right arm
break and rebuild
as i sloppily throw the mop
into the grey water
accented with glitter and swirling with paint
tiny finger and shoe prints
litter the linoleum
and i can't help but smile
fourteen hours later
i sleepily climb into my car
and i watch the sky as i drive, not the road
and the sun begins to lift it's eyelids
and it looks as if the sky is bleeding out
slowly, but surely
and as i drive on autopilot
i think to myself,
i can do this
i can do this
i can do this
until i can't
necessary means to an end
