Conversation With Dustmites
it is then i feel like an earthquake inside
it is then i feel as if my balance needs a ride
it is then i feel like my heart is on vacation
it is then i feel that my heart and mind have no relation
the color of life is so bland and so bleak
the color of life has my will feeling so weak
the color of life has my hair all falling out
the color of life makes me want to pout and shout
this emptiness has me drowning all in debt
this emptiness makes me weep as i have wept
this emptiness fully defines my here and now
this emptiness is my when, where, why, and how
my cost to pay is the loss and repossession
my cost to pay is the erasure of each collection
my cost to pay is my brain's full sanity
my cost to pay is my spinach vanity
the rust doorknob is my only microphone
the rust doorknob is my view when i'm alone
the rust doorknob is my only ray of hope
the rust doorknob is my only way to cope
happiness' eye closed when you walked out the door
happiness' eye is murky where it was clear before
happiness' eye was the center of our love's strength
happiness' eye is now fully blind at every length
