Elected: naturally sweat swamped vanity trapped cat paw flip flop.
But oil lamps burn for a different view
Vague outlines of where you once were
It's been years now and we've both moved on
You've grown up
I draw a picture of myself as a stick figure with a fat belly
scenes like an adolescent martyred for love.
My emptiness is touched when I think about your reality.
I hold enough space to carry multiple lifetimes of love and heartache.
Emptiness that was once filled could never be filled again
new doors open but renovations are not allowed.
Emptiness is still full of nothing; the sick cling to details and perceived meaning.

Elected: naturally sweat swamped vanity trapped cat paw flip flop.
But oil lamps burn for a different view
Vague outlines of where you once were
It's been years now and we've both moved on
You've grown up
I draw a picture of myself as a stick figure with a fat belly
scenes like an adolescent martyred for love.
My emptiness is touched when I think about your reality.
I hold enough space to carry multiple lifetimes of love and heartache.
Emptiness that was once filled could never be filled again
new doors open but renovations are not allowed.
Emptiness is still full of nothing; the sick cling to details and perceived meaning.
