isn't that how it works ?
missed sunrises
charcoal shadows on a rainy day
an unfamiliar knock at the door
you , standing there
not knowing why
I was the quiet one with a million thoughts , jesus and ***
thoughts so many tried to pry from my mind
ideas caught and tangled
in this superficial world , iconic and moronic
you called me a runner
I just knew how to listen
and just knew when
to go and begin - again
maybe you were afraid of my fearlessness
or was it that , so many other friends fell to their own
I remember them
your unhappiness
in how I could be happy alone
how you confused need and want
your love caged in jealousy
if you could only change
me
my social sarcasm
cliques and their ******* games
and you spinning
a carousel of questions
who am I ? who are we ? where are we going ?
you kept grasping for that gold ring
I kept riding ...
your gone now
and it's still raining
slippery sidewalks
no rainbows
just us
rust
of auld lang syne
