Nerves

The fight is not

Against your love

Or your will

It\'s my own nerves

I tried to unlink

Patterns, ways

Etched into my being 

Like sunrays

Piercing through the city

Resetting evey morning

Into one and the same

Familiarity, is but a game 

I can\'t cleanse 

The city is dense

And the nerves

Entangled, emerging

From a place I lived in

And perhaps never left.
