MENTALLY WALKING

Some days I find myself mentally wandering

thoughts may be false but most are true

I be up all night mentally walking

I keep coming back to you

I’m wondering what you're doing

who you’re with & where you are

maybe your looking out a window as I

wishing upon the same star

do you feel as I do after all we should be of the same mind

For you, I've waited for so long

but my loneliness crushes me at night

as if it has swooped down to smother me

in its cold arms right out of the sky

just like a zombie out of a movie

I want to but I can’t lay down and die

my mind like the dead keeps moving

the pool of loneliness is so deep

as an athlete, I keep kicking and swinging

but all I do is sink

if only I could just settle for someone

I don’t know-how

don’t ask me why

maybe it’s my feelings of

everyone has someone made for them

after all, even Frankenstein had a bride.
