[poem] paths, and journeys, and being where we are

wait. i think i realize what's wrong

it's like i'm so far behind, when'd i lose my place in the song?



well, i ran so hard away from people.

i locked myself in the steeple and tried to solve everything there

and when i come out for air

and see everyone being so loving and fair,

i get so confused and despair.

how did they get there?

they have more than their fair share ... right?

and here i am, grasping for care

(and of course i want them to so badly to have theirs)



and yeah: "path and journeys, and being where we are"

but listen: i did the math, i'm hurting, i really need a jump start
