zooey

i wish i could write a song

not too short and not too long

i wish someone else would sing it

when they are showering and

i wish i could scrub you off

but no matter how much i wash

you are still there

what a stain

there is a hole in my heart

bigger than the one

on the bottom of my tub

it whirls and wooshes all the time

drowning, it tries to mime

a song

a silly song

about how much it longs to get away

fly and fly

maybe learn to swim down the

drain

drain

rain

sweet rain

and everything stays the same

i can't help but fall in love again
