An Ordinary Day

There are days I sit in silence
watching the reckoning on the wall
shadows dancing across fading paint
disconnecting my rise from my fall

I cross off all my connections
count the blemishes
more than twice
as I hope for you to peer into my window

I'd open up for(to) you
my lips would perform miracles
Jesus, Mary, and Joseph
would be at our beck and call

take my offerings
enter into my fortitude
the place where silence speaks softly
time slips away, even if just for a moment
and simplicity smiles
upon not just an ordinary day

Well shit, Tim. Somedays I wonder if you're a piece of my brain I've been missing! Haha I love this, I think you had me in the first few lines! Excellent ink, my friend, as always♥
