People consumed by greed
Striving to be strong
Before the explosion
a balloon
Expanding and extending
The dawning dawn
a storm without eyes
Soon after
Will become ripples.
So 2d
years are funny aren't they?
sometimes they gallop away quickly
dancing and singing into the sunset
other times they dawdle
slowly fading, their bag weighing them down
too heavy with memories to run

this year or year and a half I should say
has never gone slower
a long list of pain
a heavy bag
does slow me down
trapping me in the past
when all I wish for is to run away
In my mind
I am with you all the time
You are here with me
In this empty room
You be
Inside me
I feel what I cannot see
Us three
You
Me
Who we should be
Onoma 2d
Law goes

loose in

the tummy,

whence

constricted.

Tryin' weigh

every ****

letter.
She kissed
With such fervor
As though she didn't
Just wanted to be love
But to be heard, to be felt
She kissed so much
Like she wanted
To tell her life story
Of her pain, her loneliness
All through her lips
As though words weren't enough
And I listened to her
That her story was safe
That every emotion is here
Locked between our lips
Those consumed by greed
Weak yet striving to
be strong
Before the explosion
a balloon
The dawning dawn
a storm without eyes
Soon after
It will become ripples.
