Irreconcilable

December 8th, 2022

Once upon a time we were happy
And now that feeling is gone
Saying “I love you” out of habit
Made me feel I’d done something wrong
Debating whether to stay or go
Through moments of despair and confusion
I didn’t want it to be over
But it felt like an illusion
I’d say the same things over
My message never changed
You still refused to listen
Our marriage became estranged
Screaming in my head that I didn’t want this
Feeling completely divided
Praying for some conclusion
When deep down it’d been decided
I’m looking for something that you can’t give
It’s time for dissolution
I need to move on and let this go
It’s time for my revolution

Fix Me

November 9th, 2009

Shake
because they all can see
they know
you can’t stand your ground
you’re dizzy
you’re falling
falling
falling.

Deep
deep
deeper
right into your skin
and you’re trapped
here
now
no way out
this is you
but your skin doesn’t fit
it doesn’t make sense.

Jumble
my words
my thoughts
so confused
so dizzy
so deep
hit the core
no known problem
no solution
this is me
no solution.

Solve me;
there’s no answer.

Fix me;
there’s nothing wrong.

I’m not broken;
you can’t fix me.
