lost connection
there’s nothing happening here, feeling so uninspired
even after watching old movies, there’s nothing
stirring in this heart
she called me out of the blue this morning, after living
another life for seven years
said she had a dream and the feeling’s been growing stronger
for three days
she’s been reading my poetry, she read a letter I wrote to her
when I was just a kid
she asked me how I was feeling, I told her it doesn’t matter
anyway
I woke up with that same feeling about a month ago, lost loves
and lives of different times
I wrote a couple songs about it, trying to find consolation
in words and rhymes
baby I just learned to disconnect my heart, long ago I
lost the connection
to my heart
I’ve been listening to old songs, I used to believe in them,
they were more real than my face
but I no longer feel the vibrations, enough distance
put me in another place
