This time
I won't speak enough for the both of us
I'll snap my gaze away from the deep ocean of your eyes
I'll no longer fill mine with their waters
So what if you're no longer mine
I'll never regret when you were

They say we are a mistake
A blot in history
A disaster waiting to happen
They say we are cursed
That we will never work
They say
They say

When the last leaf falls
And the stars claim you as their own
I'll chase day into night
Stand at the peak of the mountain
And sigh my lonely breath into the clouds
There is no such fate where you are not mine
Somewhere far away
Sometime long ago
Written for me
Was a day that dawns with the sun
And ends with the stars

I wish to weave a story
Tell it so beautifully through
It takes all its listeners
And makes them characters too

I will take them on a journey
An adventure of genres in a mall
They'd buy into all the feelings
And stop at the same stall

I want to write a story
Where we meet on the same page
Speak the same drawl
And let love take centre stage

When you say you hate it here
That this world is a horrible place
I wish you could fall in love again and again
At least five times a day
See the city through my eyes
And love the way lashes kiss cheeks
See how statues come alive
Feel the hum of the ground
And hear how loud the flowers are
The sun is on fire
And still it does not expire
I wish you could learn life and living from scratch
I wish you could hear the sound of your dreams
And feel the way I love your heartbeat

You tell me to move on
And even if my mind were able to put you away
Like the photos in a locket
Would anyone build a bridge over a haunted river?
Your body will always be my last address
Simpleton Aug 2021
My heart is in the washing machine
Tumbling and spinning
My life out of control
Take it out
And put it back in to rinse
