forgive me.
i have profaned these walls
with something
not at all resembling apathy.
i'm cursed,
understand?
i have no such capacity.
(for keeping things quiet and
my thoughts discreet.)
always,
my mind points noisily
in opposite directions,
giving
the illusion of aloofness,
when
i am not arguing aloud
with myself.
but that's just
a facade.

and find it
difficult to let either go
until neither any longer has relevance.
i wanted to
say
that i think
aloud,
but nothing i say i mean to be final.
or derisive.
inflating these things
tests the strength
of
the logic
that constructs them,
and if they
pop
i find
catharsis.
but they are
not crafted to be
answers all alone.
more questions.
don't think i want to stop,
or
am unhappy.
i don't,
and i'm far from it.
