your body is telling you that you are tired
but you are late and already half way there
but you can’t remember where you left it
like someone found and stole it
and now they’re on the subway
wearing your
i feel like i’m back
like i’m here to stay
and you’re running the tunnel
back to where you exited just to catch another train
and you’re running your body
you’re shoving your body fast past bodies and
your body is telling you that you are tired
and it could be the best thing if you just let your guard down
and let it in
and your body pulls
tugging at your sleeve
like you are someone who forgot something
so you do your triple pat
and your hands find the you that hid it somewhere safe
to find again when you need it
and when you are there
when you want to stay
you will miss yourself in this moment
