the unknown

Mind winding
Blade twisting
Always here but so distant 
Nothing more then a rock in the pavement 
Always wondering when ill get my payment 
Letting go slowly then rising right after
Why am i stuck in this cold hot shower
Stuck in missing things so dire 
Often ending up stranded with a flat tire 
Then playing with wires sometimes creating something new 
Sometimes wishing itd start a fire 
Without any burning desire 
Will i die or will i rise in this fire
Why even bother messing with it 
When it always finds a way to you out of the blue 
Always feeling to loose never in place 
Like a broken window or picture frame
Where the memories stay in place but nothing changes 
Always ending up shattered and scattered 
Mentally screaming and pleading 
That the cycle wont keep repeating 
I know i should be ok but how when everything eventually falls down 
Oh just how i wish i knew how
