Roses withering in my hand
I’ve been waiting too long
There’s no water in the vase, only sand
I refuse to look toward tap
I want the ocean

For tap comes and goes when I want
But doesn’t know what I want
And it’s got an artificial heart so it beats when it wants
It lets me breathe when I want
I need something natural and something that can read me for once
I want the ocean.
Happy valentines.
