i barely know you i know more about nap experiences than i know about you i know you have a brain i know eyelids carry all the gravity in the world sometimes i know everyone has body parts that have been in places they should not have been i know everyone has forgotten about time for a while i know you the way i know about time i know it lingers in the back of your mind while it waits for you to think of it i know about ironic sunshine how it stings those days you can barely open your eyes i know this isn't the right way to live but i know that it isn't wrong either i know it's uncomfortable to remember things you aren't sure whether the other person remembers i know there were moments you felt closeness without having verbal confirmation of it even though the avoidance of your eyes deeply mystifies me
