Mind Matter

we are all so insignificant

without each other

isn't that comforting? I think so

especially from the very top floor

I can see over everything

my mind doesn't matter in

I'm nowhere anywhere

at all times in no

time at all

I've learned that sanity is never free

but a gift given daily from myself to me

paid for in profits of serenity

in exchange for time and humility

I'd rather keep things

sentimental

I prefer life both

real and mental

so I'll never make the choice

to settle

or into that good night go gentle

with time that ticks

while embers flick

from fire burning both sticks and stones

which before had broken all the bones

of words that hurt

all our souls unsurely struck together

and thus we're simply stuck forever until

both rubber and glue forget their endeavors
