Not Ready

in my head

in my head

he doesn’t know what can be said

he thinks I’m shallow

but I’m not

deep instead I’m not a ****

so I drink

until I’m sick

in my  head

in my head

he doesn’t know what can be said

in his world

its all about him

nothing else sink or swim

he doesn’t know

in my head

what can be said

he doesn’t know that deeper thoughts lay within

not just the outer shell that can be seen

what a snot

uptight 

he can’t see beyond 

but I’m not

so I can see different perspectives that lay within

thick or thin

lay beneath or between

shoot yourself

your not worth my time

benign

smaller and smaller like a tumor

tick tock

don’t stop

good night

I am right
