Surely,there's a way

Surely,

there's a way to say exactly what you mean

without ending up an empty house of abandoned thoughts,

where the only inhabitants you once supplied

were vicious, barking commands and false assumptions,

beacause surely,

you thought past the past and beyonf what your mind could fathom.

thats what you wanted,

isn't it?

Surely,

there's a way to go about getting exactly what you want

without breakig the grasp that fascination had on your attention.

where the air of aspiration and accomplishment

is just within your reach,

dancing on frostbitten fingertips desperate to bleed.

But instead, you're left only with the stale taste of "not enough"

staining your tongue, and the word

SURELY

singed in your brain.
