Neverending

falling behind, and my lack of mindfulness has left me here
the days start to blend
i’m not alive or dead
i thought this was neverending
so why am i ending
i know i’m not alone but i just feel so
never ending
this back & forth & back & forth
I know, it’s so unlike me
a mirror i keep passing towards
doesn’t he look just like me?
still back & forth & back & forth
is all i have to remind me
of the reflection that i’m working towards
if this is neverending
why am i ending

i take a breath and try to hold it, to not let it slip away
i find a place that i can hold and my discomfort’s washed away
to where there’s no getting drunk
and there’s no throwing up
holding yourself, it takes no work until it’s time to leave or stay
turning leaves,
please don’t leave me
against the ebb and flow
turning leaves,
please don’t leave me
i’ve got no place to go
i take a breath but i can’t hold it,
i just can’t wait that long
i take a step in any direction
either way i’m lost
it feels malicious
or sacrilegious
but now i’m done holding myself and it’s time to leave or stay

there is no leaving flowers
there is no grave, just
passing in a lifetime over and over again
i’m shedding piles til i’m my only friend
and i’m not saying it’s not like i wanted
nothing about you says you’re willing to change
get ahold of yourself, that’s no way to behave
i’m not saying it’s not like i wanted
an easy promise to make
but it’s the hardest to keep
i’m not saying it’s not like i wanted
to break
there’s something waiting in the middle
so it’d be a sin to wait right here
as I bask in my darkest hour
i’m far too present to feel fear
there is no feeling secure
there is no drawing force
just passing in a lifetime over & over & over again
til you find yourself as something that just bends until you’re nothing and all that you wanted
until it’s nothing and all that you wanted
to break
and either way
i’m lost
you lead the way
i’m lost

Idle Sun

look outside your window
and what do you see?
it’s a big white harrowing sun
and it is shining over me
now all at once i’m wanted
all at once i’m seen
i feel so free
i’ve nowhere to go
and nowhere to be
hard to believe
you could feel free too
if you felt like me
ignoring the signs
oh what a ride it is to the end
wanting for life
then closing your eyes when new day begins
all at once i feel it all
at all once i feel it all
looking out your window,
what do you see?
it’s a burning idle sun
and it’s casting shadows over me
one second i was burdened
now all at once I’m clean
