i remember how it felt when we were sitting on top of your car
staring out into this little city
with expensive taste
the feeling of my head leaning onto your shoulder was so comforting
the sun was setting and your body was guarding the sun from shining on my face
we sat there in complete silence for a few minutes
and then you asked me how my grandma passed away
so i said it
you listened and wrapped your arm around me when i got weak
then you opened up to me and i grabbed your hand and held it
i kept looking at you and i heard the hurt in your voice
and i wish you would let me in the walls you've built around
so we can light a match and burn it down
but there is no doubt in my mind
that if you could
you'd crack my ribcage open
and pull my heart right out when ever you wanted to
and then id be left with nothing
but the words you said to my ear
that have sunk into my veins
and wont get out of my skin

Keep your distance,
Don’t get too close.
Enjoy the pure unfiltered happiness.
Soak it in from around the bend,
And imagine once more to begin again.
With someone new…
So many eyes, so few to see,
The future as it unfolds before you.
The want, the yearning,
The most basic human need.
Close your eyes, but do not blink.
Imagine yourself already there,
Yourself within in which you think.
This scene you see,
Couldn’t possibly be,
Someone else’s life passing before your eyes?
Or potentially your life just passing you by?
Calmly, slowly, most beautifully.
Are you to be sight within this scene?
Eventually your eyelids blink,
Though rare enough for anyone.
A wink and smile just might be seen.
When I saw you I knew,
I belonged in your scene.

*Although I often try and speak
In subtle tongues
I have no other language than this
Or so it feels
At times it feels*

God knows I am no Saint, I have a whole host of follies and sins to answer for, But if I could, and I believe I do it as far as I can, I would wipe away all tears from all eyes.
