a friendly take

take it back, and let it be
i thought you could see me
i thought you knew well enough
to leave it alone
but now we're crowded into unforgiving space
and the place is lost behind the clutter of
knick-knacks

i thought i knew better
i thought i'd be taller
i thought that when push came
to shove i'd always forgive
i thought i was wise
i thought i knew fools
i thought i was safe
from losing a love

take me home please, i'm drunk on
the caring and the hangover is
a bitch when the sun finds my face.
i never knew it would be painful to
learn to be happy.
would you please look away when i cry?
please try to ignore the elephant in the room
shitting in the corner
he'll be done momentarily.


at least you know why.

i don't give in to those who try to use force to intimidate others into conceding to their point of view.

if i did do so, the terrorists have already won.

think about that.
