Dreams of Bubble Wrap

was it wrong of me to want everything
and yet, I waited for doors that never shut
lingering around wayward thoughts
lost in the mountains of anything but

springtime is almost here again
winter was colder than I seem to remember
fall slipped by before we knew what to do
and summer slept as the waves tolled by, why?

can you blame me for wanting that 
craving that safety,  I've never known
yet always believed in,
someday
some way

songs in my head remind me
of another time, when you were my everything
now, I am nothing
but words on a page

left to the elements
I'll soon disappear...
