She goes to sleep with the lights full on She dreams of Frank thinks he’s coming home She’s blowing bubbles as she wakes to find A glass bowl bedroom in a goldfish mind He’s got no face, he’s lost his name The world’s the same, but rearranged Familiar strangers share the home She’s in a crowd, but lives alone She’s got to spit it out Her hands are wrung But she still can’t seem to find it On the tip of her tongue He walks his dog, forgets which day Takes the food then forgets to pay He’s lost his address, lost his way Forgot the reasons why he prays Now there are many, we wait the call Like friendly zombies loved by us all By the grace of God we’re still ok Maybe on tiptoe to that dreadful day She’s got to spit it out Her hands are wrung But she still can’t seem to find it On the tip of her tongue

Crowd

By Clairine T.


A relationship between two people with vastly different personalities and perspectives doesn't always work out well. When people are too different, there could never be a middle ground, and a huge rift is created that could not be crossed by themselves or anyone else for that matter. You could say that that kind of relationship is toxic, impossible to fix, that they should go their separate ways before things get worse between them. But when those two people are each other's closest companion, the fear of having no one else by their side often overrides how huge that rift is. Nothing could come out of it, but they only have each other. Though they aren't close and don't understand one another like how friends, or family, should, they are still marginally better than strangers, and sometimes that alone is enough to make them stay in that permanent stalemate.
