Bounce
Bouncing back and forth
Or fifth or sixth or seventh
I can continue to count
Still no feelingd resound
Continue to drown
Not knowing verb from noun
Silent speech
Secrets they keep
Forever you
Leads to truth
Bouncing back and forth
Slamming doors
Trying to close
Fights no one knows
Will we ever hear
The violence that's near
Questions asked
Mind attack
Bouncing back and forth
Death and birth
Give in take
Written fate
Do we ever know
The director of the show?
Or is it all pretend?
Present or past tense?
All that remains
Foul or fame
Whichever game
Created to play
Bouncing back and forth
Empty or core
Less or more
Cup over poured
Not giving more
Just enough
In given lot
Will remain
Ancient gain
No matter the way
Love and appreciate
The light of day
