someday

something about these sheets
that meet me halfway
caresses me less than
you'd expect

I'm caught in the crosshairs
selfishly left there
you'd think gunmen could learn
to not leave it lying 'round

often I'm left right here
hearing the equivalent
valence electrons go missing
listing the listless people

I love that we're here
and we engulf the engulfable
we touch just the touchable
and the sun shines on us

sometimes I hide quiet
reliant on the quickness
in the doldrums buried
believing in something over the next hill

you might think this is a smile
its only a series of bones

someday
we'll believe the believable
sustain the sustainable
perceive the perceivable
attain the attainable
forget the forgettable
defy the defiable
regret the regrettable
rely on the reliable

someday
