comfortable rejection

misanthrope
the world is a lie
driving at the speed of light
I must reach my destination
the longer I sit
the longer I think
all hope is fleeting
the rejection is mounting
out of water gulping my last gulp
I’ve been punched in the stomach
gasping for something air cannot fulfill
in queasy convulsions I mumble her name
it took me days to figure it out
but I know it now
and I wish I could forget
it’s even in a song I wrote
the one she doesn’t care to hear
she doesn’t care to learn anything more about me
yet she says I'm amazing
a true catch for someone
an anomalistic singularity
you see, the spark is simply not there
and I can’t swallow the contradictions
it's easier to swallow the tears
it’s easier to just move on
to more rejection
