Subtle as it sweeps in with leaves across wooden floors
\nHidden behind faith and a facade of something stable
\nComfortability masks the scent as it seeps into your pores
\nYou can’t see it yet but it will come
\nNothing in life is unchanging you cannot grip so tightly
\nTry to preserve the present like a globe to shake whenever you feel bored
\nPretend there is no ending but the seasons change
\nAnd so do you<\/p>\n
Precariously perched on edge waiting for an earthquake
\nThe coldness comes before the breaking
\nAching for things to go back the way the were before
\nAdoration doesn’t fit the decor so you buy new furniture
\nA bigger bed to fill the empty space
\nFloor length mirrors to reflect on your resentment
\nYou make this place into a museum
\nVacuous and sterile<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
