We sit in these walls With a million doors pressing closed They close until you stand up and pry with your ****** fingers at least one door open Even a crack can let in the light. Im sick of prying with ****** fingers - I want this door flung open now! Ive felt a few feelings in my life None that didn't do me help None that didnt lead me to this exact thought. **** this im ******* done! Ive discovered who and what Its the where and how thats staggering In circles in front of me Running like the headless chicken That i assume is me But its not Im in full spectrum At least i honestly feel like i am Ive been tricked into a destiny that has no piece in my puzzle And i have to be brave enough to be all my own parts That's what they all fear the most Let be those Who judge you Pretending is the hardest game And im not its number one player I know thats ok Its ok Ive done my mending and changing - as i grow towards my light How do i do all this **** Its confusing Its bothering How do you try sow new seeds Or even mend to the old ones when someone took a great fat stinking **** in your garden? I suppose You have to shovle the **** out Repurpose it into a sort of fertilizer Yet i still need to source the mud & some how you got to keep those seeds safe & the few buds you have, some how they need to stay alive And its wrenching my heart & i want to pull it out of my chest & lay it down in some tool box Perhaps for hands that know how to do with it better.
