I Open My Eyes
Awakening
I avoided going to bed for several hours
But morning is here anyway
I feel punished
But that's me narrating a silent movie
Tiredness isn't helpful
He turned over
Just before he got up
I thought "you're all I want" but I didn't speak
It's not acceptable
Who knows if that's him or me
'This' certainly isn't
I know the cycle
There's the days that will pass
The words and looks will be nasty
I watch on
Just watching it play out
Wondering what I conclude
The actions
They don't belong to the truth spoken
These actions speak, so I cover my ears
I want to believe
In one of your revelations
Let one last long enough for me to decide
All my life
Has been surrounded by daisies
The petals with answers spinning too quickly
