Fingers twitching
keyboard sleeping
next lines may be deep
or a mystery
about switching
off the lights
so you can’t see tears
drop to the floor
cause if I don’t allow myself
to be honest
let it be known that pain
does exist within
then I have failed
to share my little pail
full of life.
Now, if you have made it
this far
you know not to be looking for
a polished star
instead you will find
rust, cobwebs and a little
of what’s left of me
after the deluge
that I swam out of
thinking myself the only one
left standing confused.
Still a mystery
but called life by some
others see bumps in the road
stop signs and yield
some dressed in steel
prepared to battle demons
while some believe in wings
that will lift them above it all.
Wake up keyboard
time to deliver the message
shine like never before
but wait, it’s only me
not a machine.
