Trying hard to be the person who fits in
Saying this is how it is, it is really no big deal.
Wrapped around your guts are spools of steel
Your heart practiced in echoing hollow tin
Saying this is how it is, it is really no big deal.
It doesn’t take very long for blood to congeal
Flowing out to the floor, growing deathly thin
Saying this is how it is, it is really no big deal.
Going round and round on a potter’s wheel
Forgotten clay out, out for a lonely spin
Saying this is how it is, it is really no big deal.
Still looking for a place to dig your heel
Settling for sand that will shift but give in
Saying this is how it is, it is really no big deal.
Healing, they say, will soften you to life’s appeal
Bring you back love embedded in your skin
You spent a life time not showing how you feel
Saying this is how it is, it is really no big deal.
This is amazing! Thank you for sharing the how-to-write too...
