even now, i'm almost as high as i want to be.

indulging in the first bite of the apple was always a thing for me.

and i take my time with it.

i am always in the trees
and the sky that you see
or the flavors that touch your mouth

there's nothing that can be done about it

taking my time on your karma

i know you hate sleeping alone..
you do.
i know you wait by the phone
but for who?

i'm not gonna call you at all.

lies all in my ******* face

you seem so fraudulent either way
i cant keep pace with inconsistency
you're always uncomplacent
and i just cant be patient when you're gone for days

replace me with her, i'll compare you to him
and we'll never speak again
but i'm guessing that was your plan

again, tell me why should i care?

i'm useless to you
you're worthless to me
while you were in my bed
trying to find the next person to see

i've got no plans for you.

encapsulated, solely in myself
i called it self care

fainting in the spotlight,
pulling my own teeth in your vision
and maybe i needed that

maybe i liked it

i probably still do.

there is no way to disentangle
the grin ribboning its way into my frame

as it was infrequently dishonest

i savor when firing towards myself
yet the impact flirts with you
a unification of intentness

i am the necessary cupidity
intertwining with your poultry

i am the absolution thinning the air

and i forgive you, but
are you truly honest about me?

it'll never be me
as if i could ever pretend to be free
at all

it would ****
and it does

tell me
have you seen me lately?

i've been simple- intertwined with virtue

may i never hurt you
at all

sometimes when people say that they're empty, it sounds cliche to me.

an oracle
is what you are
to me
until you're
not.

what happens then?
