a pearl


please please please
don't put me on hold
I just have a quick question
then I'll be out of your hair
it's not like way back
in the days of old
you needed a person
that person would be there

I don't understand 
this modern world
but that's okay
I didn't understand the old one as well
but inside the oyster
you'll find a pearl
and you'll find a pearl
inside yourself

I'm ready for reentry
I will be one of you
vulnerable and human
determined to survive
lead me by example
show me what to do
I wan to know what it's like
to be alive
