Sometimes Starr May 2019
The springtime asked me to touch her soft petals,
I gushed with pleasure to be such a lucky soul
We shared the kinds of secrets you only tell your love
Then laid under the sky
And thought about what life was

The sky was heavy
But we were strong enough to swim in it
We were born to a fortune
With strange types of currency

Yes, I love your body as you swim
You can count on mine
To pull yours in

Somewhere in there,
Maybe I could go back and rescue my mind from this sizzling bath of TV static.
But you know what they say about thinking like that.
It's just that nothing seems to make much sense anymore,
And I find it hard to convince myself to make a move.
I'm scared, I trust myself only a little more than I trust the world.

I'm not moving, just thinking about all this and then you come home.
You talk to me in the cute voice you used with your cat when you were in Oregon.
It wakes me up.
I was unsure about all this at first,
And not really even aware of it,
But you've grown on me.
You've grown roots into my heart. I know what they want... and I couldn't bring myself to rip them out and walk away.

Because I looked down and saw that I'd grown roots into you as well.

There is nothing worth singing in my head
For now,
It is confounded
Blocked by crudeness
Percolating the next flash moment
They are waning,
I have noticed
For now
But the dynamics of life are mysterious
And I am a weird guy

Day's decline on the leaves,
Gilded hairs on the eaves
Of your eyes, facing west
How you break on the crest.

On the edge, on the edge
Streams wind to me
All the love that you gave
The mind as a haven.

Day declines all the leaves
Heavy eve breaking eyes
And the house falls apart,
It collapses my heart.

On the edge, oh the edge...!
Streams are winding from me
All the hurt that you sell...
The mind as a cell.

can i be honest with you?
i am 100%
completely,
totally dead inside

living bits hang off
but the howling pit reigns it all
disorganized
maniacal
insanity

i am dead inside

i don't care how you take it

dead inside,
i am dead inside.
and for no good reason.

GONE OFF THE DEEP END
HEAD ABOVE WATER THIS YEAR BOYS
I HOPE I DROWN SOON
I DESERVE IT
Sometimes Starr May 2019
picked up a pretty shell
wondered,
what lovely organism once inhabited
you?
caught a silly thought
found myself an idle mind
with twisting hands
busying myself with
such silly thoughts

ran into the same end as any
washed up on a faraway beach
never really knew
the meaning of life
except for me
just me
