Measure me.
Can you quantify the gradients of emotions
I spin through daily?
If I awake from years of passivity,
will you still know how to walk through years of
conversation and growth?
I hate when
I call upon the gods of anxious hearts,
The ones who have troubled
every decision you have made.
They make your commute from genuine emotions
to a grey, murky house full of
players pretending to be teams,
blue's pretending to be rainbows,
and persons pretending to be people.
Come here and hold my hands.
Mine have been missing their fingerprints
for countless lifetimes.
Touch my incomplete, hungry dreams.
You alone can.
I alone can.
Can I?

Measure me.

They make your commute from genuine emotions
to a grey, murky house full of

Come here and hold my hands.
Mine have been missing their fingerprints
for countless lifetimes.
Touch my incomplete, hungry dreams.
You alone can.
