Starfish

I sprawled on the ground

And spread my arms out

Like a starfish

But my limbs won’t grow back

I guess you know that

I guess you’ve been here

I blanket the couch

To find you sleeping

In the morning

Last month you were dead,

But now everything is

Normal again,

Normal again,

Normal again

Everything is normal again

I wish you were good

I wish I forgave you,

Like it was easy

I’m glad you survived,

'cause if I didn’t hate you, I don’t

Know what I’d be doing

I lost all control

when she fell to pieces

Not knowing if you’d come back

But now you’re at home,

Watching television,

like everything is normal again

Normal again,

Normal again

Everything is normal again

You said It was dark

When you closed your eyes

And didn’t know

If they’d open again
