sidewalk slips -
the pavement hits just like
the first time,
it takes the worst mind to
mine through my needs.
cause and side effect reads :
"kin unkempt, and his
daddy's blood was bad."
tripping over toe tags,
so sad to think -
i dont think ive ever felt
softer hands.
I'm still standing here because one of these tomorrows holds you.
There's just something about the way your eyes shine at two in the morning.
I think happiness is when you find someone walking the same speed as you.
Nights become bearable when
Your dream is pressed up against you
Softly her heartbeat drowns out every worry.
It's raining again,
But I can see sunlight
Through the curtains
Panic!
Cold mornings like this I wish I  could roll over your head on my shoulder
I wish I was warm again
feeling these sheets and your skin
and I wish you were the coffee that burned my lips because
I'm cold again
The branches are empty
and so are my hands
Maybe
I don't sleep as well
As I used to
Because everytime
I open my eyes
You aren't lying
Next to me

I'm not
looking for comfort
but it's also no
coincidence
that every time
someone dies I find
myself wrapped
in a new boy's arms.
Like
maybe
this one
can catch lightning
in a bottle or
make my pulse mimic
thunder
again.
Like
maybe
this time
his heat on my skin
will
sear the
vacancy inside me
shut.
