Day: 3 June 2019

i give up on most things
because i have trouble
trying to believe in them
just point out the exit
i’ll take it by any means
if there’s a risk involved
expect me to fold quickly
before i get told too late
when i’ve made a stake
with reprecussions attached
don’t need anything here
to drag me down further
someone told me i’m too good
to do it for myself
how wrong they were
but they were just being kind
my mistakes are my own
you can review them briefly
know my merits are bound
to the elasticity of my soul
kept in a glass jar
above the kitchen sink
with spare change and buttons
for coats i no longer own
but i can’t seem to let go
you must get the idea by now
so just point in the direction
and i’ll be on my way
