All the things that we laughed about And the plans that we made I don't remember them at all And it doesn't hurt
Your love will trickle down Through all the things you love a little more While I lie here on the ground And beg the sky for rain
Every picture I draw Is a picture of you And the lines on your face Are the lines on my face
It's not right This last rite
But quiet now, It's starting
BANG BANG BANG

So now everywhere that she walked And everything that she touched Little holes were left And filled up with dust
I keep a notebook with me all the time and often find myself with little pieces of potential poems floating through my head, which I write down with intentions of fleshing them out later.

This poem is made up of lines I've written down sporadically over the last 6 months and are, for the most part, in chronological order.
