like a day
or a short story
it's over before you know it
like a heart
or a child
big things come in small packages
so many hearts
like mine
covered in shit and dirt
trying to push away
all the yesterdays
and hurt
like a year
or a novel
it's been too long to say
like your care
or your apology
small things come in big packages
i'll never know shame
not like you wear it
i'll never know my name
because you have stolen it.
i'm the reason you walk fast
the sky blinks silver and blue
i've searched high and low
and i'm wishing death upon you.
keep your mouth shut when you lie to me.
