May 2018
not your choice, I'm stuck in the middle
is it perfect or is it going to ruin me?
a well known face without a clue
give me those puppy dog eyes, you do
singled out and high above
anyone else you're thinking of

I'm stolen, I am wrecked
under a sheet of electric slurs
one tap with two strokes
heart clenches and I'm at a loss
but I want nothing more than to be yours
bad place, hollow face, mind floating in another space??
too much for me to hold on to

opening one eye at a time
thinking it will all be a dream
but I see you, you're there
and everything is real

it's irreversible, I'm already roped in
recalling memories with a grin.
this could be my favorite delusion
convincing myself that we will work
when I know
we are destined
to fall.
