I'm not impressed the way I was at first
by all the heres and theres or things you say
I once mistook your shortcomings for brilliance

there's really not a lot of shine there to keep my attention
I spin on and on the world humming all around me and I go mad at the sound of it
and you sit
and I twirl and run and try to figure this whole thing out
and you stay right where you are

I'm sorry that you're looking for something you're having a tough time finding
I'm sure it will come to you in time
a middle class existence, likely fodder for an ongoing battle with addiction and poor health
I'm always trying to play the hero
saving the world from it's mundane sleep-state
one lovely young lady at a time
for my time, I walk away empty-handed like I failed somehow
at least I tried
