This day

This day is withering at the edges
Like a forgotten half eaten apple
No matter how much pretty lace
No matter how many smiles given
Its end will still dawn on us the same
But I can do it all up with ribbon
Act like it is just like yesterday
You can do it too, pretend this isn’t true
We can always pray tomorrow comes in the past
Hey it don’t matter that much anyway
See look, I’m fine just like always
No mascara smudged napkins hiding in my pocket
So stay strong on days like these
Don’t wanna have them end in tears
This day is ending fast
Slipping like water from my desperate grasp
At much more I can do now
‘Cept sit here and stare out the muddy window
Waiting for the phone to ring again
And I listen to Bono blaring on my speakers
Waiting for the car to come take me to Sting
But all this shallow cement
Wont fill up the fast growing holes
White high heels drag my upstairs
Watch as mum curls herself up
Listen as brother cries on his girlfriends shoulder
And it all brought me to this spot
Standing in the hallway waiting…
As it all unfolds around my body
