I’ve grown close to cold coffee
While heat is ever fleeting
In time we’ll meet at the periphery
With lingering calidity
I’ll sip through tepid acidity
And what was once unpalatable
Is now bitterly comforting

Its been a game for as long as I remember.
Everything said was one move made
A move always calculated, but
Don't let them see the feelings there.
It'll ruin the fun.
And you'll be alone.
And then you came along.
Simple thoughts alive in color
Vibrant and warm, I swore the sun
Couldn't shine brighter than that
Beaming smile; it just wouldn't quit.
I could hardly believe it was mine.
I could hardly believe I was yours.

My words wasted on your ears,
Love ****** dry by lips
Undeserving of me and mine and
The nothings you whispered
Fell flat on your tongue.
I couldn't even call them sweet.

One of these days my
Heart will stop beating so ****
Fast when I see your name and
All this time I was
So sure I was
Done with this

My phone went off earlier today.
For the silliest second,
I thought it was you
And then I laughed at myself;
It's too early for you to
Think of me.
There's no way
You're drunk enough for that.

Happiness is fleeting, Love as its carrier
They move together, far and away

Why spend time wondering if
You're good enough for a heaven created
By the minds of men afraid of what they
Could not understand?

I fly through life on autopilot
Do you think they'd ever realize?
I arrive and depart on time
The ground greets me no differently
With no knowledge of my vacancy
Calculation is a constant and lifeline
To connect me with my kind
Kind only in anatomy, general size,
The way we obey parallel lines.
Ground control, do you read me?

I try to think poetically
Combine words in ways
That jump off the page
And into the heart of the reader
But I can't.
Instead I'm left alone with my thoughts
All jumbled and pressing against
The bones of my skull
Imprisoned only by my naive tongue.

Wedding vows on grassy hills
In summertime, I watched you still
Your breath, it held up in your chest
Your eyes on her, just like the rest
I Do.
Hotel sheets spilled on the floor
Eyes lock eyes, both craving more
Trembling hands in moonlight shown
Her lips, they move and parting, moan
I Do.
Years go by and in them pasts
Dug up sweet ***** secrets last
The test of time and she’s not home
New hands on sheets they do not own
I Do.
I watch your world, now ripped to shreds
Lie softly like your words when wed
To have, to hold, now someone new
Replaced a love in lieu of you.
I Do.
