(uniquely) Feeling Tight Poem by Rich Downes

Uniquely feeling tight
Uniquely trying to stay aware.
Lessen this fight.
Obeying the dark stares.
For there's no room for even me
Stuck with who to be.
Got it unspoken
And still uniquely feeling tight.

For feeling low.
Like a mistake that I must atone,
Lo love won't show
Lost without any moan.
As I wish love would entwine
Lust may be never quite so fine
Love isn't worth tryin'
And still uniquely feeling tight.

And maybe you don't wanna comprehend.
A feeling may come back with that of such a strain.
As for now I hate feeling so tight.
A push at my limit
One scare…
One scare…
Uniquely feeling tight.
Uniquely feeling tight. (no maybe!)

Just not feeling smart.
A time where it shall fight.
No time for the chart
Here I wait and feel a plight.
Not sure of evermore when.
So these rules never bends.
Into lonely days
And still uniquely feeling tight.

And maybe you don't wanna comprehend.
A feeling may come back with that of such a strain.
As for now I hate feeling so tight.
A push at my limit
One scare…
One scare…
Uniquely feeling tight.
Uniquely feeling tight.
Uniquely feeling tight.
Uniquely feeling tight.
Uniquely feeling tight.
Uniquely feeling tight.
