The Short Way to Get You
You make me float. You make me crash. Hummingbird wings take hours to flap between days that I see your face. Glass is a liquid and it's moving at this same pace. God, I hope this doesn't last, because my mind doesn't feel much like it's mine. My brain gets caught mid-synapse. You're like a crossing guard deciding when neurons can pass. I take the short way to get you and the long way to get you home. The extra minute or 2 doesn't stop me from feeling alone. I take the short way to get you and the long way to get you home though you'd never know. The world is all gray like it's purgatory. Life has timeouts and you're the referee. You know you're in control. You just don't care, isn't that how it always goes. I go the short way to get you and the long way to get you home. I'm stupid, it's true, to have fallen in love with you, but at this point I'm stuck not knowing what else I can do. So, take me for the taking or break me if you're into breaking. My body's just loose skin and needles and pins. Hey girl come in. Make me do something. I'll do anything.
