Fold

I’ve seen the sun

Looked it right in its burning eyes.

It gave me that look

I said hey I know what I do is wrong

but I’m just trying to make a living

Just trying to feel, like everyone else.

 

Close the car door.

Don’t put the radio on.

Drive home alone

Don’t act like this is new

 

Sway yourself back to bed

Creature of habits

Days dealt with the same hand

I fold every time

  You need to get back on

 

You need to get back on here and keep writing/posting. I'll be waiting! 

 

Amazing poem. I love your stuff. Always have. 


"It is a terrible thing to be so open. It is as if my heart put on a face and walked into the world" -- Sylvia Plath.
