It’s personal

Between me and the world 
it’s personal- I’ve tried to make peace 
too many times 

I’m open to discussion 
but I’ve been lied to
and I’m ready to fight

always invading my space 
with a story that doesn’t track 
got a lot of explaining to do 
I’ve moved on from there 

you’re welcome to visit my bubble 
barely room for two 
it’s really crowded 
with chocolate, records, and books 

painted green and blue 
you’re welcome to stay for a day or two 
any longer I get restless and bored 
there’s too much work to do
