Why does nothing stay the same? Everything changes. Everything burns. All I want is to understand Stop paddling Be still There is risk of drowning There is always risk of drowning I drown when I try to be still. Why does no one ever stay Or leave, for that matter. They all hang from your heart For eternity They all want you For eternity Never leaving Breathing Never really staying either Covered in mud I can not help but breathe The dirt is In me. I hate everyone. I want to go home.
