for Mad

lyrics

they warned me not to
board the bus to angeltown
“you’re already tiptoeing a tightrope here”
i knew i would not adhere to their pleas

“i’m going to see a friend
one i never thought i could see again”
wicked words had been written and read, anyway
i needed to escape the rotten apple

shaking at the station
gathering stares while wandering,
wondering where to stand
i had not slept or
medicated in days

the bus driver scowled because
my ticket was digital
in my manic days, lacking a home
i forgot to find a printer

all those plans and promises that
had spilled from my lips, on phone calls prior
my guitar with which to sing you songs
little gifts, endless ideas

the only thing i brought along was me
a filthy, faltering sketch of
someone you love

giftless, questioning what was real

day three of day one was delightful
transmitting the thoughts inside us through held hands
meandering trails in winter woods familiar
i found some sleep as you drove the van

“i’m going to see a friend
one i never thought i could see again”
