To Be

A shuffling silence every time I breathe
Words unspoken and a wound left to bleed
Time will tell while others attempt to talk
What if the path less traveled's the one I can't walk?

Tired but I don't want to sleep
Hungry but I can't seem to eat
Anything and everything beneath my feet
Yet all I need and ask to see
The fleeting meaning to be

A reserved eagerness unwilling to refrain
The feeling is here, but it can't stay the same
Storm cellar doors, battling the open sky
When your shelter is a trap, can you still feel safe in the lie?

Bound until the day I am free
Blinded, but I don't want to see
Anything and everything beneath my feet
Yet all I need and ask to see
The fleeting meaning to be

Steadily shaking on the unwavering ride
If it can't hurt you today, tomorrow it'll still try
But hiccups in hope come as the waves
Relentless all together but withstandable all the same

Tired but I don't want to sleep
Hungry but I can't seem to eat
Anything and everything beneath my feet
Yet all I need and ask to see
The fleeting meaning to be
