body throws and and curtains closed 
i swear there is more of me.
Late night hours, coffee, few showers
I swear there is more to me.
Beyond what i can possibly be.
Beyond what small talk can hold.
This wheel is very hard to turn,
don't discard it yet.
I swear there is more to me.

I wake up the same morning,
every day,
the same way,
with a similar sway.
But theres more of me.

I threw a shoe into the mechanism
a fumbling, floating mess.
But there is more of me.
I cannot prove.
I will confess.
there is more of me.

a marvelous haunting i cannot shake.
a small endeavor,
a gasp,
a break.
How did I get here?
what was my mistake?
more.


When pressed it is so hard to be natural.
When provoked it is hard to be true.
But I am not what I seem to be all of the times that i do,
Believe me.
There is more.
