I Spoke Too Fast and Learned Too Late

COLLAB. WITH AUSTIN DRAPER It’s little more than a quiet thought. The impending feeling that the loneliness was a creation of my own imploding self-conscious. I wouldn’t have hurt you voluntarily, so what outside force could know my mind so well? It’s little more than a spoken word. The rumble of the oncoming storm could be felt from as close as 1.6 miles away, where the darkness of your room invaded the not-so secret spots of your heart. I’m prone, to the truth in your words. I’m not used to the idea of confronting my thoughts And sorting them out to you. Is it that I spoke wrong words? Or I stopped before they meant anything? You mean so much, and now you are out of my reach.

I did the first two stanzas and Austin did the third. I really like it, it's the first poetry collaboration I've done.
