i am her
predictor of the future
meticulous as a clock,
and as complicated too.
alone with my thoughts
you can faintly hear ticking
as i process what's to come.
affected by the past,
evidence and data shows
my next possible steps.
creator of a five year plan
to leave this town for fog,
ocean,
and small bookstores.
my skin is dry as i waste time
planning on how to save it.
i've researched career options,
tuition, moving, housing costs
for the best way to leave
the best way to live
in unfamiliar streets with unfamiliar faces
and have enough to pay for my coffee
you are him
predictor of the present
carer for the now, the what is
uplifted and bold
and impulsive as hell
i worry for your health
and for your broken seat belt
you worry for mine
and how my heart hurts
but my future couldn't keep you down,
and what we had slipped through my fingers like water
and for two people who could never really be
we tried so god **** hard.
