Cloudy Sundays will always belong to you Sleepy amber You are the rain Seeping through the windows Dousing me in kerosene Lighting the flame Encroaching on my present happiness Drove a thousand miles away But asked again To scratch your back Retrace the touch Permanently erased Memory’s demise: “soon” You mustn’t have known, I cried too.

Who am I kidding?
Tonight the West sky favors the dream You left on my bedside table Washed, soft and dark Even the clouds cry for you

Time to Sleep
Appearing in the dark, You wrap around my love, In greedy form. A knife in my heart, I'm bleeding. Frozen, watching you. Laughing, no one seems to notice you Sitting with ease, on his lap. Unknowingly, my legs take me, quickly, out of your sight. The bathroom mirror reveals The true reflection of the woman Living in fear. Build my confidence, glass. Erase the flutter in my stomach. Stitch the wound in my heart. Strong, beautiful woman - Saunter back to your seat. Sit with his friends, Strangers to you. Look in his golden eyes. See his truth, She disappears. Imagine the present, reality. Forget not the honesty. She does not exist any place, Other than your fragile mind.

Boa-constrict-her
The silver moon lets me rest my aching soul. Sleep void of the memory of you.

Heat
Wake up in my embrace Feel her graze against your hair My lips brush your neck She slips her hand downward My mouth, wet She moans your name I ******* scream Colorful kiss Persuasive caress Take me there Make me forget

6 a.m.
You began only a piece Sun Water Dorm room fumes You grew, miraculously Now a guardian to the grass You shade the ants and Breathe life into the lungs of the cardinals Let me fly away On your wings You green thing

And so we continue Ignorant and cold To the ****** barely-beating heart Of the ********* country We call home Elect! Call for justice! Repeal! Protest! How the hell, Did we get here? Agent orange You are correct in saying We need to make our country Great Again? **** no. It has never been Much but a host For a hateful virus Feasting on the light and kindness Of its soft atmosphere Tech! Advancement! We are first! We are best! Biggest! Boastful! Boast until you burst I fear is soon The fat seething through our pours The knowledge seeping from our brains

God **** you and your beautiful ******* music. My heaven, now my hell. Bass drops. Heart stops. Trebled tears. Your soul floats in Slow Motion. Your face appears in the Midnight Train to Georgia. You shot Bambi, Paul. Every day Feels Like Rain. I Get Overwhelmed. I'll never again see you in the Morning Light, Never again in Luckenback, Texas. If You Keep Leaving Me, Every melody begins to Grow Old. Who knows if This Too Shall Last. He's Never Failed Me Yet. I'm Not Okay (I Promise). There's A Tear In My Beer. How long do I have to Wake Up Alone? So much Pain. You might be Gorgeous, but this is Delicate. Tiny Dancer, you Lady, You Shot Me. Would you even care If I Die and Slip Away? All I Could Do Was Cry. I've Got It Bad And That Ain't Good. How Can You Mend a Broken Heart? A Long White Line? When can I Pass the Vibes? I want some Real Love, Baby. Guess I'll get In The Waiting Line. Maybe you're not my Destiny. God **** you and your beautiful ******* music.

The ******* Music
I think I fell in love with you. I think I fell in love When the tears began rolling down my cheeks Into my mouth Onto my pillow Against the cotton of my shirt. I think I fell in love When you told me How you would remember me Our time together, special. I think I fell in love When I could no longer hold you Feel your hand in mine Or your beating heart next to mine. I think I fell in love When the bright light Poured through my window Reminding me of your sleepy, golden eyes. I think I fell in love Among the melodies in the air When I heard them play your favorite record And felt the soft notes Spread across my skin. I think I fell in love When the wind whipped past me Leaving me with goosebumps, Sending chills down my spine. I think I fell in love At the sight of a plump grapefruit Perched on my counter. I think I fell in love When I thought about kissing another man, Someone other than you. I think I fell in love When you wished me happiness. Happiness you couldn't give. I think I fell in love with you.
