'Just be yourself' she said
'But who is that?' you asked.

Sincerely, I don't hate you
But I'm not the best with things like this
so I tend to avoid it all.
I'd convinced myself I liked you
Even though I never really got to know you.
I could have made it obvious but I was afraid.
Afraid on your behalf in some ways.
Anyway
I'm sorry if my behaviour made you feel a certain way.
It's only cuz I like you

you're nothing but a profile
a series of prompts and poses,
super-likes and roses;
a loneliness exposed in disposable screenshots.

day one, same again
Monday morning, hazy head
early yearnings;
coffee, ***
and cigarettes for breakfast

the oldest friend
I barely knew
turned to a memory
left alone with the new

The names change, the game remains the same.
it's a life of haste
but the pace is set by someone else's actions.
The attraction, I guess
Is the subtle inaction
a kind-of
cruise control slip stream
free from distraction.

Sunlight settles on the space you once filled,
I wait patiently for its warmth to spill.
A test of mettle sinks my soul a step too deep,
and I can't help to quell the emptiness
so I rinse and repeat.

we love.
and we love to be loved.
but let's not waste any time
figuring out which one we prefer

On a winter day I'm walking in the woods,
I'm walking with the trees;
their story-telling leaves beneath me.
How old, I often wonder,
Would one need to be
to read the dreams of trees?
Perhaps that's what we see
when we eventually leave
our livelihoods behind us,
and stumble in the woods
until our memories find us.
