And then you bounce

[Mirah]

Your heart gets lower and lower
your head feels heavy
you are mentaly crawling into a hole
you are not whole
looking for ways to hide
but also wanting to confide
in people who will listen
not advice (I don't mean here)
I mean family
Do I sit in a tree
or do I find my own path
I'll be back
I never go far
I just like to wander around
for a while
is all
I am feeling so down
everything feels heavy
dark and cloudy
I want to scream
tell everyone to fuck off
but also
please don't go
will you stay a while
hold me close
and let me cry a while
and then
a miracle happens
I see something funny
and
then I bounce

 

[Mirah]

even in a bounce
I go up
and I come back down
and I bounce again
and I go up
and I come back down
and then I feel flat
