time

sometimes I'm pretty sure the world doesn't move fast enough for me
but maybe too fast
feathers aren't enough for these wings
I tried, I tried to tell you
I wasn't meant to live in these conditions
it's not enough
and I can't say everything I want to
canning my feelings like mom's peaches in late august
swimming in light syrup 
every other jar exploding in shards of glass 
under all the heat, all the pressure--


i miss you
