Melancholy is a funny word
What does it really mean
I guess i feel melancholy
But i couldn’t tell you exactly
How it feels
It can feel frustrating
And frustration is what i feel
Most nights
Not because i’m not getting laid
It’s more of an over-anxious mind
Trying to escape
The confines of my brain
It is orange flashes of light
It is an orange pen
It is over-zealous fingers
That want to be put to use
Playing games and wandering
Across pieces of wood
And holding saws
Hammers
Sandpaper
Because the jesus in me
Is bursting out
Scratching underneath the skin
Attempting to escape
But i’m not going anywhere
This worm just goes in circles
Back and forth
Up and down
Never left
And that aint right.
