skyscrapers hover above
my thoughts and try
their best to keep me
intimidated by
their grandiose size
and i oblige
chemical influenced men
ask me for cigarettes
and their eyes are
like unfirm egg yolks
and they frighten me
so i oblige
a boy from far away tells me
to just wait for him
it'll only be a few months more
and i'm scared that i
will find another source of
happiness in the mean time
but i have no other choice
but to oblige
a drunken friend calls me beautiful
and grabs my hand into his
and says "i adore you"
and i reply with an "awww"
but something in me tells me to
leave out the front door
because this is not right
so i oblige
time carries itself through
every decision i have made
and regret
and it tells me that it has
no answers but uncertainty
so i should learn to take
things as they come
an i have nothing in me
that allows me to oblige
