~Take Me~

 Take me

The way I am

a china doll

Wayward in the world

Meandering and swaying 

 

Boxes in a row

It’s only about

what you know

if you’re happy

in the same shoe’s

The days

Don’t slow down 

 

Such a blunder 

sometimes 

I even wonder

 

Right here waiting

For something hazy

Right here 

Waiting

For something true

 

Tomorrow creeps 

on the petty wings

of everyday

So close

But really,

An ocean away

 

One step closer,

Unfolding

My days
