Tumbling and tumbling and tumbling my brain is screaming in a thousand ways

everything is important nothing matters

thoughts are rattling around like that sock I missed removing but now it has a penny in it

and I don't even know why the laundry is running if I thought it was empty in the first place

CLANG CLANG CLANG

oops

the lint trap is on fire now

He looks past you right through the journey you must take and smiles glad to imagine your suffering

He knows exactly what you will lose

the gifts the stolen moments

every ounce of comfort a shoulder to absorb your tears

When the person you need the most is the one who is gone

you wonder who they'd be what they'd say how they'd feel about your life

But there is only an empty cavern ahead a void that holds their silenced future

Grief may try to eat you but you can't join them for now

Treasures still await you so don't vacate your grotto of tomorrows
