happiness feels immeasurable
days go slowly but us,
we make time speed past
jokes about misfortune
but it's all fun and games
your laughter fills the hall
it fills me up, too
I'd lie and say I don't know you
never a day passes,
car spoken dialogue.
take me there
just so you can
take me back.
every girl is jealous
every guy wants at least one.
but me and you have got something new
equal and dumb all rolled into one
every adult knows, laughter shows
accepting as you are, coming as I am
debating and fabricating
new ideas and old reasoning
I've never had a friend like you

The Eye of Horus taunts
I keep within my walls...
Upon his mistress, he calls
Gory bloodlust haunts.

Secretive sanctions underground
Disguised in white-
Hold me tight-
Every passing brake light...
Keeps her highness spellbound.

she dips her toes in, testing radioactivity
requests slow motion waves at dusk
friends with strangers, plans rearrange
will she lay in troubled happenings?
her love is a virtue, but what if she hurts you?
no intent to stay with just one

he expects absolute devotion
requests exploding praise upon the morning
try hard, but what about the end game?
differences flowing through similar paths
but what he does not realize
she is but a free bird, soaring down valleys with a closed ticker

a threat, self seeker, her morning liqueur, sir
upon further investigation
you're all three

maybe that makes you toxic to me

I am...
wasting away, frozen in the car
picking buzzwords from common conversations
hail clinks against the windshield
a dusty melody envelops her
leftover tears seep into soles
when I could be...
wasting away in the lively sun
throwing away responsibility
as the ocean waves splash against her back
an island aria entices her
the hot pavement beneath sandy soles
where I should be...

find me at the hall in\between
Love and sadness
frighten me summoning signs
roots slides pick it up
muffled sounds blend
into the noise
searching so hard for subtle change
did I run after you?
Now it's not me but just one
friendly lunch, overwhelming coherence
if you leave I can make up for you
Bothersome don't affect much
walking through the hall without a single care
but
I'm single, and you care

one's silence costs everything
first gun, a real kicker
another's daughter - a pouring mess on the floor
his photos spoke too loudly
so loud that no one listened
one's brush off costs another's lover
slumped in the corner
never providing another kiss
speak up, ******, speak up.
don't label, it's fatal
don't care, some things are crucial
forever guilty for the spills
one's cheek turn costs a legacy of terror.
Speak up, be safe.

discrete arm circles
toe tappin' tipsy
speaking through tongues
at the doo-*** with my honey

we meet the market!
his apple butter swooped her up
pearly whites, loose curls, "coming, dear!"
in my group, in orbit

a moldy example of a native
mark the girls, wink wink wink!
but me,
oh, me
piling up Z's before the sun says hello
