by brightness
you are my second sun
though your gravity is such
you are
my only one

I attend college in an apocalypse
I'm planning for a future that doesn't exist
Paying these grandiose establishments
So they can give me a piece of paper
A modern day participation award

Ticking time
sliding by
painfully slow

The future
in front of me
lies miles
behind me.

The present
unfortunately
no longer favorable
for me

I feel
a timeless remorse
now I may
have loved you too little

I miss Your smile, I miss your eyes
Your silent stares your sweet goodbyes

Your frame dwells in translucent fire
From streams of pulsating delight
Undulating hips sway with my every desire
Warm my soul again with your blanketing thighs

Canopies of whispers visit me at night
Winter’s cold, summer’s heat, my love fever
Take me to where sun and moon melt into light
A chase of the wind, I’m a foolish believer

I died at my death
And that was a shame
My sun went to nova
With no one to name

I died at my death
And that was a pain
My song undersung
And nothing to gain

I died at my death
You called out my name
Weeping and broken
But no one's to blame

I died at my death
I went to the grave
What I spent of my duty
My heart couldn't save

I died at my death
They put up a stone
My flesh fall to rot
Til there's nothing but bone

smaller than
an orange

I lifted her
and saw her

bruises and scars

she was not
perfect

but I took her
home anyway

she was
so sweet
