you don't have to deal with this today
March 28, 2019
step out of your bones for awhile
let my voice soothe you,
just let me drive.
you've been thinking too hard.
sit back.
you have time to relax,
before they come back;
and dig their fingernails in:
an attack.
i'll keep you safe.
my hands, like headphones,
framing your face.
close your eyes i'll take you
away.
i'll squeeze your shoulder
like a promise.
if you can trust me
with three minutes.
my words, immortal
in your pocket.
you've been thinking too hard.
