Why does nothing stay the same?
Everything changes.
Everything burns.
All I want is to understand
Stop paddling
Be still
There is risk of drowning
There is always risk of drowning
I drown when I try to be still.

Why does no one ever stay
Or leave, for that matter.
They all hang from your heart
For eternity
They all want you
For eternity
Never leaving
Breathing
Never really staying either

Covered in mud
I can not help but breathe
The dirt is
In me.

I hate everyone.
I want to go home.
