I’ve got one eye open so all I see is him
Through the curtains and my window
He has rhythm intricate like the moon phases
Intoxicating and sacred
Leave my tongue hanging, salivating
He’d be like heaven on earth
Or in my rotation, my gravitation is pullin’ him in
Waxing and waning until he’s a new moon
He’s hiding his solar ring

Save your tears for another day
And maybe we can love again
For now there is no other way
It is true, we have found our end
So we know what is loved is lost
And what is lost cannot be loved
What touches your soul has a cost
And what is found should not be touched

It’s a shame, you’re looking for love
You won’t find it anywhere near here
Only eighteen minutes in my room pourin’ up
I guess it’s worth telling you
There’s nothing but the mere
Truth
It’s gin and vermouth
I’m putting you under my control

I get the joy of rediscovering him
It’d be a risk covering this up
And never looking back like Orpheus and Eurydice
His patience didn’t make the cut

“Yea you’re in the sea with me”
“Katelyn, don’t swim too far out” he said
But I got bigger dreams than any tsunami
He’s my lifeline to the coastline
He brings me back to earth
I undress him and caress his head
Kiss and bite his neck until it hurts
He likes it when I get aggressive
Loves when I say his name
Sounds different now, almost percussive
Banging our heads against the bed frame
We’re making a ******* hurricane
We drift
Would you stay on jack?
Just until the morning, or until I’m back
From the river styx
It’s cold here, I like it here, but please don’t forget
The way I made him feel when he didn’t know what to feel
The way I keep it real when he didn’t know what was real
He has to leave me behind now, he looked
The light I kept to follow him is out now, I’m hooked
Maybe the nymphs and deities will mourn our loss
And you will return to me by the will of the gods

What is it called when you know something must happen but you delay the inevitable out of hope.
In hopes of sticking it to the man, or whoever decided I have to leave you.
Because I do.
They are right.
I’m stuck in a rut of what-can-be-worse
But nothing proves me wrong.
Everything can be worse.
My only wish for all of this
Is to see you do better without me.
And maybe as you pack your last box,
I’ll feel lighter than before.

Be rest assured because death relaxes
Us
It reminds us of what was
That point you realize can cut us
Deep within that mind of yours
I must have it
Because you’re such a bad habit
It’s a pandemic god ******
Where’s the mad rabbit
I must be going down the same hole
Eat me to feel whole
But drink me from what you stole
This mouth of mine stings you cold
It brings you over and under my spell
It’s not love, that I can tell
But what you wish inside that well
Ain’t what you really wishing
Hell, it’s among Rockefell
Or
What you fell for
The riches you found inside my drawer
The body rotting on the floor
Is yours
Only two things in life that’s for sure

take your top off, you are faithless
because “you are looking like you hate this”
mouth off, go ahead “don’t make sense”
I think you think but we haven’t got the faintest
idea of what we are
‘i deal with it a lot’
i am trying to seem faithful when i signal it to god
above and beyond
you witness but forgot
and now i see your grimace face
remind me of our finished fate
