The frames
Don't have names.

Just pictures
And some dues.

The way
of the waves.

They will hold you.
Better than I do.

I live in
another.
We breathe in
each other.

She said you've got the eye.
She said you've got to lie.
She said you've got to die.
She said you've got to ask
Why?

What's the use?
We're all deprived.

Put me to work.
I'm alive.

I've got the bones.
Pick me
apart.

I'm a walking work of art.

Lift me
higher.
My heart's on fire.

I'm living proof.

That we all
unwind,
from behind.

You can't
feel the skin you're in.

Until someone's felt you.

You don't know
where to begin.

Until someone's had to.

I sent you the moon
And you didn't respond.
I think you were too drunk to.
I wonder what else you forgot?
If you had hands for another?
I would forgive you.
But please
Don't tell me the truth.
I can't imagine her.
In a hotel room.
It makes me sick too.
Maybe if I lay my head down?
Maybe if I listen to some tunes?
I trust you.
So why am I making up memories?
All I can think about is
the moon.
And why didn't you-
Please
Don't tell me the truth.

One in the morning and I'm wishing upon the whistle of a passenger train that you were here with me.
Counting down the days until I am able to see you again.
I want to say I have never felt this way.
Standing in the shower, water running down my face.
You and I are more than just two frames.
We are supplementary.
You are not just a soul case.

If you ever think of me-
(If there were such a thing)
My eyes would glow so sweetly.
I would stop circling the things I want,
then start grabbing the things I need.
You would be the first thing.
What would I be?
You would the last thing.
There are no words
For what you mean to me.

What does your mind say when no one is listening?
In mine, there are butterflies that escaped my belly.
They swarm inside me, and turn to bees.
When you're not with me
I can hear them buzzing.

I'm addicted to possibility.
The first time I met you-
I will try again tomorrow.
To not forget you.
I'm addicted to capability.
I will try again.
In the morning
After i've grieved you.

I don't want to feel the rain on my skin anymore.
I don't want to wait.
It feels like a thunderstorm.
Like the wind is laughing at me.
These things happen-
Naturally.

It's hopeless.
I tell you these things-
I just want to know.
That you won't let me go.

*This feeling I get when you're near
I'd give up gravity to feel

You said you thought things were coming to a close
I said I couldn't let you go
It's unnerving to know
That it could have happened so easily
That I could have slipped through the cracks
That you would have let me
I thought I meant so much more
When we said those words
Those four
Don't forget me
In the valley
I know the heat is on
But soon the rain will pour
Please tell me I mean so much more

My mind is busy, busy
But my heart will always
have room for you.
My body is aching, aching
But my hands will always
hold you.
Even if we're shaking
And the ground is quaking
Nothing will change
between me and you.
I won't forsake you.
Say you won't too.
