Maps (Jack's poem)
Sunburnt smoke, inhaling you
makes me choke on the words I drew
arms are warm in Friday sun
take me with you when we're done
Borrowed clothes and broken bones
sweaty palms on bus rides home
I'll find comfort in your hands
your heart's a map and I'm making plans
Crumbled ashes haze in grey
alone again for another day
I'll wait for sunshine to melt the snow
but your map's still too far for me to go
Headphones hum a lullaby
an old hello, now a new goodbye
and any darkness I once knew
will covet skies a shade of Blue

A poem I wrote to accompany my friend's college artwork. About her boyfriend, Jack.
