I recall when
my breathing was based on your every move
and the epitome of joy
(for me)
was simply, watching you
there was not a thing
in the world
I wouldn't do
just so you would make room for two
now my walls bare witness
to me pulling teeth
(even just the memory of feeling hurts)
but it all subsides
as I greet the dusk
and then the day
I stare at traffic moving backwards
and I recall
your truth
you said "forever is just a myth"
then why does it feel like I'm taking forever to forget?

I saved another planet today.
(superhero)
I am kind of like Batman,
because I don't have any super powers.
I'm just a super nova.
I'll outshine all of these galaxies.
I could be your shock wave.
If only it weren't for these black holes...

I saw the earth weep today
when once more, mechanics prevailed.
they were singing
and whispering tales of a yester year
in the arms of the wind
the hand covered them,
like a mother,
embracing her infant.
then as snakes do,
it swallowed them
first, with the venom poisoning them.
then their tales fell silent
and the wind wept for what was left.

i lost you somewhere
between
florescent skylines
and linoleum earth.

1. the muscle between your cheeks
2. the limbs at the end of your arms)
