Circular Thinking

Poem

I was awake and now I'm sleeping
I'm not even dreaming anymore
Now that you’ve told me you love me
I’m left here to wonder why

Am I stuck in your head
That way that you dance around mine
A marionette
Will you pull my strings and make me feel something?

When you're reading on the
bus and it stops
Do you get interrupted?
Losing your focus
Does it make you want to jump off?

Run up the avenue
Up to the block where you
Used to live and waste your life

How long has it been since I met you?
How long will it be until you leave?
