Immature
I lean on my cell phone
and type and breathe
smiling
crying
while drinking memories
excited and
and purify the air of the world.
In peace you sleep
next to me
every breath
an acrostic
spelling my name.

Your skin, a
magnet
to my
hands.

We may step
out of time
but in these moments,
we are finding
our new song.
I was in it
Yes, it was real
Still is
It just changed
As all things do
I do not fault nature its cycles
I do not cling to any moment
besides this one
on love...
before us
path we don't want to take
faces we don't want to see
things we don't want to do
over there
in the sad events
what is the meaning of life
in them?
Grief lingers like a friend in the doorway, unable to say goodnight. So now I’m in a diner at 2 a.m., the coffee is getting cold
For the sake of conversations I had long ago.

Snow flakes fall
Look like they will stick to the ground,
Build up
Make something wonderful

But when they finally reach it
They melt
They go away
Like my dreams of building a snow man
He never sticks

(This note was written by shoelaces you can't tie)
Loneliness is
like a sickness—
a poisonous,
raw emotion
that’ll make you
fall into
ashes

But toxic love
is the deadliest
of all
