Yes my darling, you are every unfinished poem besides my waste bin And yes you are every thought that clouds the cranium space above my neck But just know you were my destination You weren't a pit stop or a cheap motel where I could kick up my fit and leave when the nights over Its hard to remember how it felt before I met you Now I slowly start to feel the lava rising up to my bottom lip and the taste of blood as it flows out my mouth I feel the steam as it comes out my ears and fogs up my room
' Low lights and long nights I try hard to not remember And you, too beautiful I can't look I've done so very many stupid things it's too late... remember '
I feel it again The despair I felt in the dead of last winter He said I should leave you behind But I know, the thought of you will always linger Every night I try to put you out like a burning cigarette But the embers spark up my dry throat and start a blazing fire I keep thinking about the park And the bench we sat on The trees we compared ourselves to Your smile projected the light that reflected off the rancid polluted lake The dead stars the lit up the sky when I walked you home And most of all the clumsy words that revealed what my heart had to say
