MedicationA Poem by gravitylavaI had a thing to say but forgiveness took hold Didn’t get a chance, didn’t give a f**k a part of me pointed at you but I know you don’t know the way I’m just an edgeless cliff I’m just an edgeless cliff Your ultimatums make the most sense of all my riddles and rhymes If I wanted sense I’d check under the couch cushions If I wanted sense I’d buy a pack of cigarettes and see what I got in return Don’t make another message turn to mess Don’t make my machine a machination We can’t turn dirt to wine but we can grow dandelions just fine We can’t make dirt deserve worth but we can rub it off our faces I’m just an edgeless cliff I’m just an edgeless cliff This is the part of me that sees through almost everything This is the part of me that turned my friends to strangers This is the part of me that’s trying to be likeable This is the part of me that I like best when I am drunk This is the part of me that sleeps all day to avoid dentists and republicans This is the part of me that learned what earwigs really look like This is the part of me that thinks earwigs are astronomers This is the part of me that loves my mother She grows nauseous while I drive and I know she’s tired because so am I I loved her more when I was sober and she wasn’t so small THIS IS THE PART OF ME THAT BELIEVES IN FAITH © 2013 gravitylava |
