about

goddess of wisdom
you can't always avoid
how something once made you feel
and just because it is not what you wanted
don't make it any less real

how do you deal when the thing you want so bad
is not the same as what you need
i am spiraling and i am stressed and i don't see a point
this was always grounded in finality

goddess of wisdom
you look surprised
but you saw this coming all along
i've come to find that you can strategize
but that doesn't always make you strong

map out an endless list of ways our talk could go
and it almost feels like i am in control
but i see your heart is in a different place from mine
and i am falling fast into a cold familiar hole

goddess of wisdom
you're not as wise as you always thought you were
i'm letting go of what was never mine
and somehow that still hurts

goddess of wisdom
you're not as wise as you always thought you were
i'm letting go of what was never mine
and i know things could be worse
