I’ll never be happy he told her.
She said it wasn’t true,
that he was young,
that he didn’t know any better,
that things will change someday.
And when they met many years later,
when they were silver-haired and slower afoot,
she said she was sorry,
that she was the one who didn’t understand,
and that he was right all along.
And hearing that, he turned slowly and walked away.

i hid from you,
i hid my words.
i told you what you need to hear.
never what i want to tell you.
the rain fell over my face
thank god
and no one had to see my own
raindrops.
you told me
“go home”
i did all you asked.
i hid from you,
i hid all you didn’t want.
i just clung to your hand.
and begged you to love me.

my lady,

wherever you

find yourself.

i can't  help

but notice

how you keep

that deep, dark

secret.

on that immaculate

cuff.

what's up?

Darling, I’m a storm of color
I’ll blow through your soul
And leave your rigid black & white
In bewildered wonder

I see youth in a haze
Sunny afternoons from Mars
Been chasing stars

World still turns
Joints burn
I go back to sunny afternoons
Still in a haze
Now I chase the Moon

inhaling the third time, it hits me
giddy and careless, i smile
there's no where else i'd rather be
just here
with you
under this umbrella in the pouring rain
my clothes are still getting wet
but it doesn't matter
nothing does right now
nothing matters

light a spark to burn away
thoughts that I have lived today
what time is it?

time for medication
