American Our lives are mere flashes of light in an infinitely empty universe... / -Dominic Owen Mallary
Sunday sun-dazed steamy sweet haze of our warm breath coats the icy window panes the sky shines bluer than our fingers in the snow so sleep on dreamer while we wait for summer days to breathe again

-21 degrees (with windchill)
first a date, then a kiss love songs are made of this you’ll say I’m beautiful I’ll love your smile you’ll promise crazy things I’ll dream of diamond rings we can be innocent just for a while

begin
we fall in and out of shape like raindrops beating on your windows, and I wonder if you like to jump in puddles like I do, or if you hide under umbrellas with the rest, afraid of storms?

quick question:
we were nothing but caffeine and lipstick promises in black and white on sheets of paper never signed despite a leaky ballpoint pen--blue-- like your eyes when we said goodbye and sometimes I write in ink and you occur to me in smudges between letters and broken thoughts because I live on with no regrets I still feel guilt for yours

au revoir
clear blue skies no rain today just breeze and beams of sun on window panes are broken but no one quite remembers how or why they got that way janet thinks they should be fixed I don’t because sometimes things are broken for a reason and no one really looks through anyway

break
you can paint in the spaces between my thoughts and I'll patch up the holes between your dreams

togetherness
you can call me whatever you like so long as I can call you mine

appellative
sometimes when you fade into the background of my thoughts (we all know that's not often) I open my eyes and see the city street again instead of your running feet flashing down that hall wrapped in gray and the stars dim above our ceiling made of streetlight beams and car exhaust, twinkling so madly desperate to be seen.

all she wants
I'd rather run 13.1 miles in two hours filled with sweat and tears than be your kind of Beautiful again, my dear.

decided:
you come so easy to me like Taylor Swift songs and breathing and smiles and the silence at the end of my thoughts never felt so full without you breathing in and out and on my neck
