park

The sun speaks in blue and yellow, stripes and fades
And still I'm failing to hear you or see you
Feeling doesn't come naturally and it's draining out of me like colour from a wet page
Draining out of me like an old bucket and I have no hands to hold it all in
The sun speaks in bright and harsh words but still it's all muffled, like I'm on a train driving away. I heard you from the corner of my ear. And I'm holding my chest from the momentary fear.
But it's passing and passing.

Look me in the eye and tell me you don't find me attractive
Look me in the heart and tell me you won't go
Look me in the eye and promise no love's like our love



I'm not mine
You're not
These aren't
This is not
Mine

Nothing when purpose and dreams bead off my hands like rain
Dripping from fingertips and strands of hair
I'm carrying around a little rock in my hand, soul,
Even though you keep whispering you've got the stick to break it
You can make the water flow
I'm watching passively
Trying to invent my own passion
Newspaper-paper mache-it all goes in the garbage
Pretty quickly

Where does the good go
