Everyone is always coming and going
Leaving and arriving
Im lost in the minutiae of things
Intermingled with past and present
Present and future
Now and here
What even am I?
The abundance is overwhelming and actively forgetting
Yet actively accepting
Is a confusing way to live.
We have it all and nothing and love never really stays
Its always in danger of leaving us
That's why it makes us feel so special
And sometimes we grab hold of it a little too hard
Keep it in a strangle
And it no longer wants us
I sit here looking for pain
Wanting for it to wash over me
So I can feel less subjective
Searching out certain names until I hear them called less and less
I stand in the crowd swaying as your eyes glint over us all
Im looking at you and I can't tell if you're looking at me
Can you see me looking at you?
While flashes of purple extend your reign
Over the atmosphere
You're doused in red until the trumpet blares
And the wind of your voice simmers
Filing down into nothing
As fast as it came
And it was everything.
And I can't stop thinking about you
And how pleasant that night was
While I was swarmed by colors and reflections off the disco ball.
and i got to dance with women who really really get it.
