My Voice Must Be Light As Air
We talk small in big spaces
Leaving the words around us empty
helium balloons floating
Wasn't my voice atmospheric
It's disappearing into the clouds
My muffled thoughts, my meaningless mumbling
Enter the room before me now
lagging emotions left in the windowsills
The sighs escaping my lips etching their homes in the fog forming on the glass
Vanishing quickly
these fleeting feelings
And me always dragging behind
