I spent an hour and a half drawing a picture of my bike
while my daughter watched "Lady and the Tramp"
Instead of riding it
Instead of taking my girl outside
The perspective was a little off
But the shading was really on point
I could stare at all this beauty until I died of malnutrition
I could sit in an ecstatic silence just taking in the world
But I feel like I am a little kid in a big department store
Trying not to look lost when all these conversations take on the slightest weight
I'm in a cave with a giant penny. a shattered childhood. a mecha T-Rex.
I'm in my head with a song again
But I know I should be here with you now
when I'm tired
eating dinner in silence
It's just some nights I can't sleep for thinking about Batman
I can't think for thinking about The Clash
Sometimes, pinball
And I know it makes you mad
I'm always staring at my phone
When everything's in front of me
But everything can be overwhelming
And I know that I shut down
But I'll try to harder to be here
I swear to you, I'm right here with you now
