the floodgates
it's welling up.
the stress, the emotions, the revolution, the nausea.
it's adding up.
i can't eat yet i'm still hungry.
feeling the empty places with smokey air.
limp arms, slack eyes.
i've fucked up all my future expectations.
so let's make new plans.
stop taking loose stands.
but it's piling up.
the clothes, the papers, the emotions.
the distance is growing
and, before long,
the wall will be completely solid.
well, damn the floodgates!
tear them down.
there's nothing left to hold them up.
the past two months were proping them up.
i've been waiting for the crest to break,
climbing up hill,
waiting to reach the peak.
waiting to release a sigh.
more uphill, more resistances.
it's going to break soon.
i just hope i'm not around when it does...
