It's love
she knows and I know it too
it's that feeling you get
when each other wants you and you know
that it's true because you
want me and
I want you
it's love
so sue me.

I close my eyes.
There is a home inside here somewhere.
I remember.
It sinks slightly to the left.
My knees are covered in mud.
The trees have pushed into the living room,
sunflowers are rotting out the woodwork.
I have grown awkwardly into the floorboards.
They remind me that is okay.
I forget.
It keeps me full,
all this emptiness.
The windows are all open.
The hinges let go of every door.
I learn.
Trace the outline of each frame,
hear the echo of hollow footsteps:
"Love more,
love more,
love more."
I have never been here before.
This is what it must be like;
beginning.

You're stuck in a daydream that once was
Out of love, I just can't seem to listen
Until I say yes, your world just isn't livable
Raised to keep everything inside I hunker down in dread
Enough words to keep my head spinning, to keep my voices screaming

Hungry for my soul you search for the good within, only to bring up dust
Ubiquarian. You say I never leave your mind.
Regretting from the beginning I began to turn away
Terrified and .. clingy. You rush to my being
Idiothermous is what I can not be
Never has someone desired for my burning touch
Grabbing at every little affection I throw, like you

Masked in silence I watch you crumble
Ebullition will be the finale

memories.
forgotten freedom.
caught insomnia
in a mausoleum,
fighting nausea.
am i doin well?
drool against my will
until the light floods in.

sunday tunnel vision.
perfect colorblind.
ill-prepared and scared.
falling way too high.
don't change the subject.
my stomachs upset.
burning lovesick.
stick together eye to eye.

stitch letters together
into dated wisdom.
winds of change approaching,
much too proud to listen.
mortgage mortuaries,
buried in my debt.
have you ever slept?
i dreamt a dream then i forgot.

There is unanimity in the presence of
Thought,
Desire,
and life.

There is universality in
Love,
Pain,
and shame.

A consistence of connection,
Proved by sympathy and empathy,
But humans still feel alone.

Our thought is based on what we've known,
Our desire based o how we've grown,
and life is just a thing we do, it's vague.
I know, but it's true.

Love is often unrequited,
Pain divergent in attack,
Shame is often isolating,
and a façade of loneliness is left.

But listen, speak, relate, and think,
Widen your perspective.

We can change the world someday,
Because we're different yet still connected

a.s.

Playful nights,
Brightest lights,
I love you my beautiful flower.
We can talk for hours,
As our love grows in power,
I love you my beautiful flower.
At the darkest night,
With all my might,
I wish we could be together.
You're perfect to me,
With all of you tea,
I love you my beautiful flower.
