stars do align
all in due time

you say you’re not a poet but
with a girl like that,
how could you speak
anything less than
the stars?
-a.c.b

wake up wanting to cut your ear off. the moons the only thing laughing at you for not being able to sleep. you're reminded of the eyes you've fell for. sway with them for a bit. drink red paint to ease the pain. cut it off. give it to some girl you just met. playing only the white notes on a piano. drink more paint. cut off the nose this time. give it some other girl you just met. read Tolstoy. to ease the pain.

If you put sand
In a bucket of water
Eventually,
it settles at the bottom.

I'm not sandman,
But I'm at the bottom
In the lake
Of my tears.

Not settled
But drowned.

Is it
A field of stars
Or
A constellation of orchids?

You tell me I was good with words
And you fell in love with me

You tell me I was good with words only
And you fell out of love from me

Hello
It's like hell
With an O
Or halo
it's like hell
With an O
