i am a joke
laugh with me

interlacing
pace changing
intimate phrasing
"i want you"

your hands bruise
but don't mend
i bend
over backwards
i spend more time
wondering what to say
but all that is said
is "more"

today i need more
today i need less
today i feel more
today i feel less
today i need
today i feel
i need
i feel
today
i
fight
i
flight
i
drown

let me draw you
and ocean
to drown inside of you
instead of drowning you
in it
because death is escape
but this will gape
your chest until
you are empty
i'm ready
to
fly

your pacific
ocean is specific
to your body
a hobby
i like to kiss
and miss
but never love
