i’ve been staring at a crack in the wall for days
been thinking about jumping in to crawl away
each endless day just stretches into another
i’ve lost my sense of time,
my will to bother keeping track
i just talk to my cats
all the people in their homes sighing
i miss feeling shy, hiding by snacks at the party
hugging my mom
i miss holding babies
singing with my band
i miss roller derby
my head grows numb with each news release
as yellow peril swells & spreads like disease
i’ve got too many walls, not enough room
i’ve got too many walls, not enough rooms
can’t turn off the radio, can’t put down the phone
my limbs weigh me down like they’re made of stone
all the people on balconies singing
i miss feeling shy, hiding by snacks at the party
hugging my mom
i miss holding babies
singing with my band
i miss roller derby
i miss lattes made by baristas
sweating at the gym
i miss my sister
meeting my friends without using computers
