misha
your name is
forbidden in
my mouth
or in my heart
because when
i think about
you;

i'll cry a little more,
hurt a little stronger
love a little softer
because you no longer
make me feel sober

i'm drunk on the
memory of you
if only i could chase you with pizza but shots don't work like that

When I was little
I was scared
Scared of the monsters living under my bed
I used to hide, under my blanket
Under my blanket, I was safe
The monsters couldn’t reach me under my blanket

My parents used to say
The monsters would go away
I would grow up and that then they would leave

But I grew up
And the monsters didn’t leave
Turns out my monsters, grew with me
Now instead of under my bed
The monsters live inside my head

So I hide, under my blanket
Where I think I am safe
Wondering if after all this time
My blanket can still keep the monsters at bay
All I know
Is how
I feel

And sometimes I
Wish I
Knew nothing

I felt so high
When I fell in love with her
I felt something new
Perspective shifted to a different view
Steady dropping  Jews
Yet she's a rare gem
Oh what a muse

You were raised without praise
where storms are the norm
catch
the wind
that crosses the tide
trudge the dread and take that stride
break the violence
where curses were built
Satanic crutches
fells the mind
crave wisdom that fleeces the foe
stretch the sinew
and grow
your
... spine...
dream the dream
leave hate behind
and
refrain from crime
brown leaf
Pray!!!
stay alive
in this bright future
you
were born
to
survive.
