Sun wakes me up with a warm smile
Bird welcomes the day with a hymn
You haven’t danced in my mind in a while
Suddenly the chance of rain feels slim
.
The moon undresses you, little bird,
Your eyes are indigo skies without stars,
Your breath is summer grass after shower.
How you hold your arms before the night,
A lance of milky sheen and flailing bliss,
Your arms arrest as they softly surrender
And your ******* overflow in moist shores
Of white sand and shells, little ears to kiss,
I am drowning in your curves on the waves
From the sea, delirious with eye of moon,
Drunk with wild ocean as it consumes me,
Your hair is new grassland to run through,
Windy as a child breaking for the beach,
I latch my fingers to yours like driftwood
Tangled in kelp, the salt we share, steeps,
Is **** and deep and our lips are shucked
Oysters, blind, iridescent, sliding with eyes
Into the famished throat of ***** heavens.
.
Anxiety is a snake
a slow creeping Copperhead  
Hidden and frozen  
Beneath porcelain skin
Without warning it strikes
you hear the same sounds
you sound like that one band I heard when locked out

we won't sleep tonight
we'll stay awake talk about everything
we won't wake up in the morning

I fell in love without a warning
when you left me I wondered
where do broken hearts go

I don't want to talk about it
feeling so alone

I won't sleep tonight
I'll see the sun come up again
Is everyone ignoring me
feels like that to me
I understand
once you meet me
you wish you never did
I know
I always leave before
someone does
born in a ghost town
I had no friends around
if I catch a glimpse of someone
tired of me
I cut off all of our connections
disconnect
never see them
until it's been too long
If everyone is ignoring me
I'll turn blue
I'm no longer seventeen
feels so bittersweet
I'll wait
in a reverie
