━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

my heart hangs heavy
& the sky is gray;
i'm so tired of feeling this way

i feel really lonely
and i just want someone
to talk to
but nobody wants
to talk to me

there is a missing piece
to my puzzle
and that missing piece is me
with my baggy clothes,
my messy hair,
and out-of-this-world stare

you whisper to me
pretty words,
i wish we could fly away
like birds
but gravity pulls us back

i pull my jacket to my frame
they all say "what a shame"

it's overwhelming,
all these swirling colors
that creep into my vision

it's overwhelming,
how far i feel from my body
how i don't quite recognize me

my lips are stained with cranberry
and my fingers are turning blue
oh, what am i to do?

the weather gets colder
and still i get older

november rolls over,
enjoys her last days
before she retires to the grave
and in her place
december stands in wait.
