Tides shift
sands twirl
feel the grit in the air
opinions grind
and machine parts whirr
feel the grit in my hair
from my hands twisting it
from my lack of not getting it
not understanding why I'm the way I am
there's question marks after lessons
there's no answers after sessions
of why do you think the way you do
and I'm the one being asked
Why does it bother me?
Well.....
Why doesn't it bother you?
Maybe I'm not angry
Maybe I'm not depressed
Maybe I'm just thinking today
Pardon me for being unsure
Sorry for not having the cure
for what's causing me to shake my head
as I'm walking away
I'm just who I am
my face holds answers, look and see
why does it bother you?
and why doesn't it bother me?
