Silly
How silly am I?
To think I can try.
Everyday I waste away
reaching for more
never leaving the floor.

How silly am I?
Fallen again
I’ll make pretend
a days happy end.
I cannot cry
I don’t know why
I even try.

How silly am I?
Say what you say
you lied today.
But it’s ok.
Stare at my door
it won’t open anymore.
The blankets in store
please protect my core.

Now I can try
to reason why
I even try,
I waste my days,
I reach for more,
you lied today,
I cannot cry.
How silly am I?
