when you're left with limits
of conditions to explore
left to drag limp feet
while prodding the dark with a blind stare
no direction for the eyes to meet
the difference runs too deep
and this smile is too heavy to keep
why do you have to be so important
but you are
why do you have to be so important
but you are
beneath the petaled veil hides
an ugliness of unsatisfaction
with a silver spoon in your mouth
your tongue never ceases, it glides
laid bare is the anatomy of it all
with its scissored incisions
solid air and percussions.
why do you have to be so important
but you are
why do you have to be so important
but you are
day falls too quickly in your eyes
you missed the sunrise tonight
with a subtlety of a myth it arrived
but we shall both see tomorrow clear and bright.
and you will say
it'll all be alright
or will you?
why do you have to be so important
i let you be.
