The days feel like poking a bruise Or like bumping your leg into the table You forget that the staining is there, A small purple, blue, green universe The pain is an unwelcome reminder Of an unwelcome, life-changing event Then the days blur together in phases The waves of emotion rise and fall again I’m wrapping my mind like a present The tape keeps getting stuck on my hands And I keep collecting the pieces And yet, none of them seem to fit It’s an internal, external struggle A dissonant existence You left us here, you did this And abandoned with no way to fix it.

you did this
The days feel like poking a bruise Or like bumping your leg into the table You forget that the staining is there, A small purple, blue, green universe The pain is an unwelcome reminder Of an unwelcome, life-changing event Then the days blur together in phases The waves of emotion rise and fall again I’m wrapping my mind like a present The tape keeps getting stuck on my hands And I keep collecting the pieces And yet, none of them seem to fit It’s an internal, external struggle A dissonant existence You left us here, you did this And abandoned with no way to fix it.
