What's better than tripping is falling in love What's better than Letterman, Leno, Fallon, and all the above What's better than popping bottles trying to ball in the club Is the first caveman pops with his son, ball and a club What's better than paper is ballin' it up What's better than followers is actually fallin' in love What's better than frolicking, follies, fallin' in mud Rolling in green pastures, wanderin', followin' love What's better than eating is feeding your fam What's better than meetings is missing meetings to meet with your fam What's better than leaning and needing a Xan Is hitting your zan dreaming a dream could mean leaving the land What's better than yelling is hollerin' love What's better than rhymes, nickels, dimes and dollars and dubs Is dialing up your darling just for callin' her up It ain't nothing better than fallin' in love IGH!

That's Love - by Chance the Rapper
You’re so cute. Whether you’re that kid trying his first playboat That woman working the cash at Timmies Laughing with me as I light up over the word ‘bacon’ That girl smiling at me as I fumble with my passports Or that lonely soul who holds deep eye contact Because it’s the only form of connection that comes completely naturally To you. The look in your eyes Your spirit for life You make me happy Because you’re so dang cute. I have a crush on you. On your Joy de Vivre. A deep affection, Like that which my father held for me That one morning When I was skipping around the house Crazy eyes and wide smile: C’est ton joy de vivre. C’est fou comme la vie est belle; et c’est fou comme vous vous êtes beaux. La joy de vivre; c’est la définition de l’amour pour l’autre.

Ton Joy de Vivre
Something to be learned From my gut But focus too hard and that tension will cause my gut to shut the **** up. And sometimes I want it But until I listen I know I stay haunted By a gut that churns and yearns to upchuck the truth. Just learn the truth! It burns in you! But still I tense and squeeze and search for keys Search for meaning, search and plead We make believe while our guts clench and scream You are the truth! Its only you! And its only me Because we cause what we see Just like the fish cause the sea And the sea caused the fish In an age old wish for self You see identity just builds itself It has no real base in some impermeable self Its the illusion of self That swells from relation Because yours is not mine and Mine is not yours But apart from all this: nothing is sure! We’re a network of cells distinguished by traits But we form one big gut because we’re one in the same.

MY neck
I think When he leaves My self-care will make me un.stoppable. I think When he leaves I will fill my OWN needs. I am here for me. I think When he leaves I don’t want to hear anymore Bike Lingo For a while. I don’t want to hear Every Detail Of montreal Of literally anything anyone says /ever/ Compared to ~new orleans~ To ‘One of [his] friends’ Who has the sweetest gig Life Hobby. I think when he leaves I will still love him The way I love beautiful people Even if his ignorance.. Immaturity? Self-interest? Makes his language Attitude Reactions T o x i c to me. I put so much Into my contentedness With life My life And i need to be recognized for these efforts I need to be SEEN To be HEARD To be respected for the depth of my being and not my #skillz on a skateboard Or my patience for bike #factz and stories. ******* respect me with tenderness or I am Out The Door No matter how perfect I thought you were.

When he leaves.
Here it comes again --the acid creeping up my throat Reminding me that the motion I perceive with my eyes Does not coincide With the motion of my mind. The fluid in my ears, I find Being steered by forces hidden behind A curtain blinding my sight. When I was six, the sickness would hit When I was in the backseat going down winding streets. The pain, I claimed, came from my jaw But it wasn’t long until they saw Splattered across the back bench of the car --I was motion sick. As a teen, cleaned from this curse, Steering the machines that once made me squeam, I thought I was free. Until vertigo creeped into my seams. Clear sight, but a spinning mind! A crystal displaced in the skull behind my face Would trace every turn through, as if it was reality who had forgotten to move. Now nausea creeps in again as my mind perceives a reality that once again, my eyes can’t see. All of my hopes and dreams so real to me… But when my eyes look out to reality, they are nowhere to be seen And it makes me feel So Nauseous
