You got me like I got you.
I never see myself with another person.
Just bring your love and I’ll bring mine.
Let’s go for the high miles.
We’ll make our own mingle high club.
Test the reigns of our relationship.
Build our mental health back to what it was.
You got me like I got you.
Now let’s set the table for two.
Wine for the both of us.
Trust in before us.

Different Tones

You asked me to hold you.
I held you.
You asked me love you.
I loved you.
You asked if I would leave you.
I said never.
You cried for me.
I cried for you.
Yet our words meant different meanings.

Thinking

“Who are you?”

“Could you answer that?”

“I'm nobody.”

“I answer to everyone.”

“I'm that little voice in your head.”

“Some people call me a conscience...”

“I'm just simply you.”

One last Goodbye

“Hi! How are you?”
“Hey it’s been a few days!”
“Hey, I’m just checking up on you.
“Hey! I miss you!”
“Hey. I hope you’re doing okay”
~
“Please answer dad.”
~
“I love you!”

Anxiety

I look at my hands and they are shaking.
My breathe is shuttering.
My words are stuttering.
My ease has been stirred with a blender.
Now I feel eager when I’m with you.

Off Course

“Where’s this draft coming from?”
“When did it get there?”

“It got there when you left me.”
“My temple shifted with the earth.”

“Now I walk forever in limbo”
