Upstairs
I’m not trying to do this
I’m really not
I was opening my eyes
not my mouth
and the observations
just come out
you get kicked upstairs
a lot
with these thoughts
I don’t even think
they’re mine
to be honest
maybe I’ve been here
too many times
I’d like to think
I’ve gotten the hang of things
but these surprises
always throw me off
maybe it was a secret wish
I made be careful of those
you might not
want what you want
when you think about it
do you think about it?
