Upstairs

 Upstairs 


I’m not trying to do this 

I’m really not 

I was opening my eyes 

not my mouth 


and the observations 

just come out 

you get kicked upstairs 

a lot 


with these thoughts 

I don’t even think 

they’re mine 

to be honest 


maybe I’ve been here 

too many times 

I’d like to think 

I’ve gotten the hang of things 


but these surprises 

always throw me off 

maybe it was a secret wish 

I made be careful of those 


you might not

want what you want 

when you think about it

do you think about it?
