Stripped

I didn’t want to run, so I took off my shoes

I didn’t want to walk, so I took off my socks

I didn’t want to stand,

I didn’t want to sit,

I didn’t want to be seen, so I took off my glasses

As I lay down, I feel my heart drop like a hill on a roller coaster

As I sit up, I lose my breath like when we met

As I stand up, I see the world come back around me

As I walk, I feel lost in touch

As I run, I feel my weakness leaving me behind

As I see, I feel I lost touch in the world – breathless and downhill

I’ll put myself back together again

Then the world will change
