undress the disguise
so if you find my girl, send her home to me
where everything is accession, future and prediction
where I know why I walk and talk like a machine
where it's mine if I pack up and run away
where salvation shatters the shackles within
where broken hearts break bones, break up fast
where at night, my fireflies never die
where I ignore the blue side of the sky
where I rarely dig two graves
where feelings are allowed to be astray
where there's music in the shallows, the deeps
where I'm too loud and resist too much
and where I have a soulmate by my side
now where am I? my fading supply
so if I could act on my revenge, then, oh, would I?
and if you find my girl, send her home to me
for her to express
this poem depicts a home free of pretend toys
