Myri
I've known your sorry epitome
                        And I want to make it mine
No I want to abolish it
                       And replace it with vibrant memories
Ones that you can breathe in
                      And relish in
Draining all the sad sappy nonsense
                       And giving you something so real and true
Pure in all delinquent ways
                       And rough like a bright tear drop
I'm going to grasp your love
                       And never let it go
I'm going to harness the overwhelming tide somehow I promise
                      And you can have my hope of love which will soon come
I will not make you whole and blemish free
                      And you can never complete me
We can just be there for the chance to glimpse it's changing
                      And to shield it from all harm
It will making going our separate ways easy,  flawless
                      And we will seek the ways together, and singular
Because you cannot love another until you love yourself
                      And when you do, dreams are sure to burst
Into pockets of dripping sunshine
                      And I will be there waiting for you
Love will become easy when whole and understanding
People like to treat my heart like sugar
No more than a grain that they throw away
Something that they can't get enough of
Some are in love
Some hate it
My heart is like a big ice cube
It once started whole
But with each play
My heart started to melt and disappear
My heart is like a glass vase
I am filled with roses
You break me and get cut by one of my thorns
You break me and you smell the sweet scent that was once me
My heart is like a bomb
You mess with me and I will go off
If you never touch me I will do you no harm
My heart is a hornet's nest
Poke me with a stick and I will sting you with no end
My heart is a honey suckle
Taste me and I will fill you with sweetness.

mike
my heart is the native drum which i drum
and the heat which it leaks
is the land where im from.
it dies in the earth
and was born of the sun.
it speaks to me deep.
ghosts of wild beasts come.
Fact is,
hear this true
it's not me
it's *you
I moved but you followed
i became lighter but you just stayed dark
i turned but you just kept going straight
i learned you failed
im here and your gone
i tried you didnt
Im going
just stay
just stay away
please
