change vs progression

bad title but oh well

You had pumpkin spice creamer
and poured the first cup.
You were steeping on dreams reoccurring
and chasing your shadow again.

I read the paper and saw
the house swing the party
appalled I
knee jerked my ego
didn't feel the burn at all.

Now I'm changing my clothes again
and I'm staring down the wall.
Dreams shouldn't take this long.
I cant feel a thing at all.

I stepped out the door with twenty 'til work.
I felt myself changing
and I peeled my leafy skin,
and I walked around in it.
