More and more I know
Life with you would be lonely
Your world is too small
All the countries and seasons you go through in a day
Do not widen your margins
Your land is one man and one man only
You swim alone
Stuck under water
Filling up your minutes with pressure
You suffocate
I watch from far
You don’t want to be saved
I see you there at the corner
Walled in great commitments
Wishing I could crack you open and awaken your eyes
Turn off the AC and open the window
Look at the world outside
Forget the accomplishments and start living them
Still, I watch you quietly
I’ve longed you for days and days
And here I stand on our last hour
Sitting on your couch
Your presence pulsing quietly on the table
Five miles across the room
We are going to break
