lyrics

Rolling through a Savannah afternoon with jazz seeping through my fingertips
Bubbling out into the streets
Singing to a stranger passing by
Watching them smile
Sitting in Forsyth wondering why I still exist and how
How much longer I have in this city
How much I love her oak trees that have held my broken body and let me weep tears into her Spanish moss
Watching the salt water fall from my iris onto the earth floor
Oh how I long to stay within her sunny shade all day
To break away from these capitalistic ways
But here I am in these motions
Work just to come home to a disappointed mother
Push her away because it's easier than having the same conversation over and over
Look through a screen because it's simpler
I don't have to think
Sometimes I think it's fine not to think
To just lay down and breathe
Despite the uncertainty
Despite the astrology charts
Or what I had for breakfast or dinner
Maybe I am much bigger than these things
I think I'm just the same
