endless desire

"retribution & wishes on a rainy saturday morning"
i have freckles on my fingers & a song in my toes
and i step to the tune that they're making.
but for others it is this
and the new trend is that
because they must be where everyone's at,
but i laugh at the lives that they're faking.
and maybe i don't know where the new people go,
as they scoff at the clothes i'm creating.
but at least i know me, and as these people don't see:
it's only their own hearts they are breaking.
so before you speak out--try to tell me what this life is about:
consider the steps you are taking.
you see, no one's taking score--that not what this life is for--
regardless of how many souls you're forsaking.
& i don't mean to sound catty, like i'm preaching some cause,
but it's time these things were said,
in spite of my own countless flaws.
because i wish moments for you where you see life at its fullest//
not through gradeaur or sparkle,
but amid something subtle--the poorest and dullest.
