Capability to Change

I am a stagnant water
Collecting dust and rainwater
Level rising in this contained walls
Waiting to be released, to run free
Waiting for an overflow

I am a stagnant water
Collecting moss and unidentified creatures
Turning green, gross and grimy
Waiting to be cleaned, to be changed
Waiting to be thrown away

I am a stagnant water
People poke holes on my concrete walls
Building a running water system
Waiting for a cleaner liquid, oxygenated
Waiting for a salvation

Still I am a stagnant water
Long collected debris and dirt
Hand-in-had forming an alliance
Blocking the holes, blocking options
Blocking all hopes and solutions

Head Patting

I said something funny
A pat on the head

I did something wrong
A pat on the head

I was sad and angry
A pat on the head

I was extremely happy
A pat on the head

Also when I was joking around
A pat on the head

It's warm and it's heavy
But it sits perfectly

And I miss that
Your pat on my head
