Wake up

The days’ morning light fades as you wait.

Readiness stalls for others while gathering

Enough function to voice the fuzzy will you’re just now forming.


Silence serves as leverage in the absence of noise

but drowns ignored among the cacophony of agreement.

The dull drive pulls shame along with dollars

as you regret the omission of thought in practice,

and left suggestions at thresholds as forgiveness.


The loud now washed out the bright colors fade

the funny traded chuckles for smirks.

Did all this dwindle limited by math

or stagnant space registered already?


Sound crashing at exhaustion

a cry outside the fragile bubble of well-being

dangerously comfortable enough to easily upset.


Good and bad rear exact results of the same escape to familiar places,

and rashness recommends to sever everything to bleed again though fear for the better.
