On The Edge Of Another One - Self Esteem

I don’t need time passing

To tell me that I am scared

Don’t need wild mornings

To march me faster home

I need consultations with my finest advisories

And bathing in money that I made on my own

I don’t need to know about what you are doing now

Or who knew all about the others you preferred

I need careful lessons learned and breaths took deeper

And resignation to the fact this is my lot

You don’t know me, but how could you?

You don’t like me, and why would you?

I watch you eat and think how freeing it must be to not

Let consequence addle your every thought

The mindless passing of my only calling has rendered me

Shocking to the people that I love

Do the mornings frighten you?

Does my body please you?

Do you trust when I say to you I’m fine just having fun?

I could open up to the idea of you

But I’m just to tired to finish what I might start

You don’t know me, but how could you?

You don’t like me, and why would you?
