Acknowledging specific things
outside myself
naming them, implying them
covers me entirely
I know it's true
it just takes getting used to
he did this to me
and I did it to you
Maybe it starts today
more likely it's already over
and you're wondering why you're bothering
of course you are, of course you are
Punishing my stupid brain
poison myself
feeling cold and tightening
subtly ignoring me

Plans

How often can I say I'm waiting for the spring
if I still want it to mean anything?
I'm never making plans, just finding ways of killing time
and I can't drive past your house, 'cause someone's always home
Possessed by manic energy
I miss when I was lazy
(be patient)
I was bored, but I could concentrate
(manage your expectations)
I knew what I was missing
The creak of growing things is crowding out my thoughts
I should grow room to hold them, but I'm not
I think I'll be ok, if I can give up enough
and anything I can't, I hope that I grow out of

Your Stuff

I can't return the things you left behind
No. It's embarrassing
It's not a mystery how you'd react
Because I know you better than that
The things you said
when you were drunk
should have made me feel fucked up
but I know you better than that
My votive candles are all burning low
low. Flicker emptying
but by their light I can see what's true
I see they're finally getting some use
