Jul 2020
And so what was wild now calms;
As the distant lights hide your all;
As the cold ****** at the fading veneer
Of a night to remember,
And a day to forget.

Such purity, coated in chemicals,
Brought to light a world of thought
That blossomed through the settled decay.
These hours you've borrowed from tomorrow
May serve to remind
That your mind may bend to your shape,
As well as against it.

Blissful delirium in dark, dank solidarity.
Your world is well within reach,
But it will not hurt to stay here
A little longer.

Lavish yourself in the time that you've spent;
Stave off tomorrow a while.
