sometimes its hard to
be happy with her around
but then i just smile

Blue

And I dont think you understand

It isn’t that

Language and wording

mucking itself up in translation

Freedom is what i believe in

but belief means nothing to you

I think you transcend

You don’t know why, right?

Words and Language

translations that arent always accurate

Freedom is what I seek

but what does that mean to you?

Inside, the thought
Seeing her face
she looks past
I never know
how things work
broken like a crisp
brown skin
forgettable name
fork and fissure
fizzle and feign
force and...
We won’t speak
Nameless books
shelved permanently
truth be told,
I dream of her.

Night came
like ivy climbing a tree
we sat and watched
the ivy clung to our heels
and scratched up our thighs
wind sifted through our hair
it carried the moon
Its frost fell onto us
we wouldnt stop it
She smiled. I couldnt.
our feet bare
wrenched against the rough shingles
each grit reminded me
of the words she spoke
her fingers pried into mine
when the sky turned black
Then I would wait.
We would wait.
