aware of patient responsibilities
distraction of content magicians
witness of consistent recklessness

self-care performance review
imaginary body image ignition
sustain love unconditionally

I shed you
                              Tore you off
                                   Against a rock
                            Winding and
                    Slithering
                            ­Until every
                                      Inch
                                Every glistening
                                               Inch
                                  Was free

                              And I ate you
                                    Sorry

                  ­         I couldn't breath

Am I?
Is He?
This should

be good

I know you're the one
And I would tell everyone,
If I had enough
Wood to knock on

You're perfect
And I would tell you,
If I had more credibility
Than a significant stranger

I love you
And I would believe it,
If I had a more realiable

Last night was a good night

It was cold
But we had a space heater
And pizza
And a board game
Wine and ****

and a house to ourselves for once
I caught you sleeping better than usual

You make me want to do boring things
But I can work without heart swelling distraction
and clean the house
and practice Spanish
and catch up on some reading

Someday I will tear this quiet heart open
but not Today

Today is boring

If I could
get her alone,
I would tell
my younger self

Stop trying to change
The World

Stop trying to change
Me

When you can't

It spins
You learn
Unless you fail to notice
Whether you try
Inspite of wants
It's all you
And it's all good
