I'm coffee and you are cigarettes
I keep you going
while you **** my slowly

AM
you have worked your way
into every crevice of my mind
even in the darkest, cobwebbed corners
you're there
but the question plagues me
am I even a fleeting thought
an ephemeral image
in your mind?
do you
ever think of me?

You were warmth and a path,
now I'm lost and freezing.
Your flame and steps faded
by a year of no contact,
in fact,
I'm still mad as hell,
in contrary to my frosty noes,
and you know **** well
what you were doing
letting me walk your path
till it led to ruins,
but still,
I'm cold and wandering
and can't help but wondering
if you were never a flame at all
just frigid ice with well carved
"loving" eyes
because I look back in my memory
and all the fire between us
came from me,
you just used it to keep warm.

But if you do
tip toe along with me,
love me *****
twist my tongue and fight,
like you said you would,
to make it right.

I fell in love
with the way you picked yourself back up.
You didn't ask for help, you've got yourself and no one else, and that's o.k.
But it scares me to hell to think that
you don't need me.
What's to keep you from leaving?

'Cause you say you have big dreams
different countries
Changing lives, and switching personalities.
Big dreams, big dreams

There's this feeling I get at night
when I can't sleep it's like I'll never have to leave,
Can I be part of your

Big dreams, different countries
Changing lives, and switching personalities.
Big dreams, big dreams

I've gotten so good at being alone
now it's a great time on the couch
surfing the web on my phone
singing with a wide mouth
letting random melodies pour out
throw in a shout or a laugh
chilling with myself like a *******
but it's fun, acting exactly how I
want to act, patting my own back
I'm glad I didn't let myself as a best friend
slip through the cracks.

Your eyes are oceans
And I'm drowning
In our memories

Am I really so unhappy
That I feel the need to fill my lungs with
Poison
Just for the ephemeral pleasure
Of watching as tendrils of smoke
Dance

Hermann Hesse
I walk so often, late, along the streets,
Lower my gaze, and hurry, full of dread,
Suddenly, silently, you still might rise
And I would have to gaze on all your grief
With my own eyes,
While you demand your happiness, that's dead.
I know, you walk beyond me, every night,
With a coy footfall, in a wretched dress
And walk for money, looking miserable!
Your shoes gather God knows what ugly mess,
The wind plays in your hair with lewd delight---
You walk, and walk, and find no home at all.
