bodyparts 44



with my eyes closed
i keep it outside
whatever it is i don't need
wherever i feel i can't reach
whoever it was i didn't reach
whoever it was i could need

it takes hard work
to keep it all out
to look as if sleeping
to look satisfied

it takes a long time
to become satisfied
in spite of closed eyes

it takes all the energy left
to reject the need felt
or to reach

Even after working to keep things, people, places out, there comes a time when energy is renewed. This is when the keeping out is not so important eh?
