Finished

girl named sam

RPM 2013

I write letters that I have
no intention of sending
I tell stories that wander on
without an ending
I have never really gotten done
with anything
but I am finished with you

I keep water boiling
til the cooking pot runs dry
I tie ribbons on fingers
til I’ve forgotten why
I have never completed much
in my whole life
but I am finished with you

I let cobwebs hang
in half the corners of the room
I hum only the starting notes
of all my favorite tunes
I have never thought closure
was important to do
but I am finished with you

oh I am finished with you
oh I am finished with…
