Worth it
In the dark and hazy room on lexington avenue
I watched you do your thing
I watched with envy and longing
Maybe a bit of jealousy
I held you high
In wonder and awe
I wondered
Was it real
Was it a dream
A boozy hazed floozy
Get off that bar stool
Gonna have to detox
Do a lot of down dog
And chaturanga-ing
To shake that one off
woke up this morning to clair de lune
Thought about how i’d been inspired by you
Can’t get enough sleep these days
Dark circles under eyes
Spinning in circles
Reeling, squinting
Struggling to see
To focus
On what’s right in front of me
Anything. Everything i want/need
They think im a machine
And maybe i am
But i have feelings too
You let me read aloud
You listened
I liked that
That was cool
You smiled, put your arm around me
Kissed me on the cheek
worth the week that feels like it might never end
And it may not
It may just keep going on and on and on and on
But that’s ok
Lemme just drink this coffee/wine/whiskey
Watch and learn
i’ll still show you how its done
