read me slowly
because we haven't got the time
to rush things

i get a mild high
from looking at you
and i pull my lips closer to

the taste of your cherry dr pepper ***** robitussin
makes me
makes me
makes me

HOW ARE YOU
SO
BEAUTIFUL

HOW DO YOU
COMPLETE MY STORY

OH HELLO MY LOVING
FOREIGN
ARTERY
HOW ARE YOU

HOW ARE

how is it
that you make me so happy

how is it
that you conjure from me
hendrixian poetry

how is it
with every drop of you
makes waves
in my brain sea

you slur my words

and make me ramble

some broken quotes
that mean galaxies

some broken

some

um

and you make me ramble

oh you

oh you

and every time

and everything

you just make sense

and you just make sense of things

and things make
a lot of sense
even if it's often senseless

oh you

how could you when i'm all alone you're far away and when i'm one and lost you're hard to reach and when it does arrive it hurts to move but it makes me so glad to have you anyways for with every turn it puts me in a

trance to write another word without a past like particles from the edge of the event horizon evaporating the toilet bowl with its shining twin and

it makes me stare behind this tunnel hoping that the light i'm walking away from is another train to push me forward to the finish line the past will make me better and better in moving forward or it will crush me under it happiness to move along and

forget everything it passes through the trains brings nothing with it but it's passengers looking down away from the window away from the sights they will never see again but me

me i'll let the train hit me and as i sit on its fender bloodied and broken but healing i'll take my time to stare at the world because now you are here and now i'm aboard the train and i have you to help me jump off to where i need to be you are what i needed

what i needed

what i needed

you for me

you for

okay


it hurts my mind to keep you running things

i cant even make sense

i don't know if i'll understand what you and me will sculpt

eventually everyone who reaches the mountains come down to breath the heavy air they need

but you are astonishing

you are energizing

you are tiring

and i'll tame you

eventually, your high will make me float

i'll tame you

i'll tame you for

you for

you are
