When you blink, who arrives?
Those curves for riding, I dare you
sentimentally tragic, stay a minute
exhale those limits
One ways, you get goosebumps



         -until we erupt

Knowing..

will I forever answer when needed?
No knocking beyond that door
Open up to see only one of me
I’ve always needed you more

waiting to appear on film
you appeared where i’ve never stood
towards the reflection
reveling for the moment
how so, latent lover?
instant to where i felt pain
where i smile for exposure


                     

                       -for you to claim

Am I proud of the fact
That I’m over you?

Proud of the fact
That my heart needs to
be distracted in order not to love you

Decode my feelings
If you find
time in which
you were preoccupied
to know if I left yet
too busy to scan the room
illustrate by seeking
only when the time is wrong
I loved you that way
plenty others swept under the rug
plenty lovers can’t hold on
needing each other just for fun

I’m rushing for you to say I’m too much.
That way every thought of me will have you rushing to wonder why
That rush isn’t fast. It’s eloped. It’s cyclical.
It’s the eyes that stare and wonder why you are made like something I can’t get rid of
Made like things people rush for
Love and lust can only be seperated when used responsibly
Use us up until your mistake becomes me

To another day of touching
Touching for inhabiting
Breathe my soul, torch my hair
where do I begin?

I’m the abdomen for your head
when you depend on
When you lay on, I stay stiff for you to frail on
Always making noises because of you
Pierce my lips together so I can hum on yours

Sharing care for others please let them stare.
Shaking because of the rush
Never bold dancing for you not to touch me here
Lick off my rough patches until I’m bare

Worry about me only if you want to
Worry about ever getting home again whole
To bare foot witness what we built
Burning sight of our roles

Claimed baggage was agreed upon
Carried on for the ride while never unnoticed
I wonder what you ever noticed
Whimpers before the blow hits my chest

One last whisper to glory
To the last of our beyonds
Ending miracles before they bloom
The doubt uncials in the room

Hold me down until the bubbles stop
Your heart I took
Love, I have for you
That stays put

Devoted to the cause until the sun is down
When darkness swallows
When grass cries dew
When crickets echo pain
When the wind leaves the leaves alone
When you’re sleeping  
When I don’t love this game
When your sun rises
My heart does the same

Confined to the slaughter
You sit alone in this entropic state

I’m currently sitting on my head with a pencil
I’m wondering if they can hear my yelling
They will find out after it’s over
I think my head doesn’t want to go down quite yet
It’s still pretty out here

Won't you wander to unknowns where places don't appear?
Won't you rekindle our extremes?
Won't you rub on splinters the buloke smooths out?
Won't you change thoughts that reappear?

Won't you wander to unknowns where places don't appear?
Won't you hear the voice you sought true?
Won't you fly back down in silence?
Won't you climb the light that creeps through?

Won't you wander to unknowns where places don't appear?
Won't you blow out the candle before wax melts?
Won't you feel chills when our skin lays bare?
Won't you hold on to my bones that lay still?

Won't I wander to unknowns where places don't appear?
Won't I feel anything before roads become clear?
Won't I end from bloom fields?
Won't I hold this candle while my skin heals?

To seek refuge in hollow whims
Sanctuary is for whomever it fits
Emboldened by the size of our coalition
We stretched for home when it hit

These walls had holes that exposed lives
They sought out permission to secure
Home can't fault when our hands stay firm
We stayed until midnight for stars to cheer

Eclipses of life illuminates violent rays
Devastation creates fear in the air
These walls will stay sound for centuries
Pearl gates held still as endings felt near

You can't lose what was taken from you
We reached for balloons that reach back
Knights cleared up space for grieving
Our strength stands tall for our very last

I spoke to trails about my errors
My nothings have no room left to grow
I'm joyous and glee
Enclosing within my own caliber
The existence I'm speaking into is persistent  
I'm free of any refraction that can see itself ring
We think we are the only ones
The adoring spectacle of awaiting orders  
Don't wear clothes that aren't meant to be worn by you
I stitch values onto the linen that underlines the day I was born

I have never seen a shell like yours
The smooth shine invites sunlight that dances on your home
Our shells side by side
Split image souls that Rorschach couldn't quiet duplicate
We talk from the windows of our domains
The beaming similarities of a feeling I've never had
I split this affection in half and let you have your share
I throw my heart over and it doesn't quite reach you
The feeling of unknown
I am cautious of shallow water
How easy it is to doubt survival
How rejuvenating it is to hear your heart
My shell won't limit my direction towards you
I will catapult into the unknown feeling bare
Unlimiting actions
We are forever here

Dim lights still glow
I left them on
For you only to know

Shedding lambency on my faults
I study stars jump out of planes
You see meteors do the same thing

Two wrongs make a pattern
One must fail
The uptick corkscrew found on this trail

We reach for starlight
You kept me on
It's bright out here

Connecting flights with lost signal
You flew to the wishing well
Stars still fall from planes

There's nothing we can't feel
Idle conversation for everyone to leave the room
Your approach towards the world is to heal
PJ's at work is prohibited
You swarm my thoughts while looking unfazed
broached feelings inspired more than just a chase

We hate the word "forever"
Elongating anything more than enough is fatal
We love the word "moment"
Jumping in your life is you giving me a key for my own suspicion of freedom
Unwilling to move from that spot in your mind
I solve labyrinths whenever I choose to
I'm sure enough that you're enough while we stay puzzled  
I hate the word "label"
I care enough to see your strength
To dare not change the box we don't fit in
Measuring out expectations while you stop me in my tracks reassuring that your finish line is wherever I want it to be
You hate the word "doubt"
You share sentiments of courage with every stab in the dark
We have lived the grand scheme of everything
You'll always belong to yourself

Preserved for calm hue
The river of lava rests
More dancing for rain

Ok you win. You predicted that our fates of running around looking for each other will eventually end

I lose. I failed to acknowledged that ideas in my head of you are memories of a past I didn't want to choose

You chose. To manipulate my fears and uphold your promise as soon as your heart froze

Mountains on mountains it's all uphill from here
I was afraid of heights but you never let anything limit me
Holding hands at the crack of dawn to sight see
Why is it so easy to fall
One slip up and we're gone
I value kinships across regions but I think the tectonic folding image of value is you on my mind
Never envisioned that our fun could be left behind
Drastic climate changes at this altitude leaves me to believe we're unprepared How strong is the feeling on this sensitive terrain
Maybe if I jump rather than fall we will have something to gain

Emotion is linear when I have clarity
I observe the unknown
It isn't civil to express benevolence without remembering your own
Moments construe laments of pridefulness without knowing what to do
I sink deep while unfurling the truth

Your eyes gleamed when you told stories of home
You protected hope
The sacred bond elapses
Being my father was nothing more than to provide the savior faire for me to cope

The impossibility to live up to your standards
To seek demeaning attention
To breathe only when told to
You showed me that standards were of my own
To expose the will I had to be good at something I enjoy

The garden you mailed to me is something I still take care of
You taught me things are meant to fall apart so I can put them together
I hold on to your spirit because my children will know
The garden you made was real enough for me to grow
