Burnt myself again today
need to be more careful with fire

I don't get out much
but there isn't much to do on the outside

The stillness in this house
on a higher level than most

Like time ceases to exist
once I stepped through the door

I just press the button play the music
and melt out of my physical being

Float through my days
in the melancholy light

Going about my crafts
singing to the silent audience that is my home
cold coffee, dried flowers.
no, i don't write poems so much
anymore.
you came along and i'm
suddenly
living in
one.
and maybe one day we'll learn to be ok again
maybe one day we'll learn to live for love
we'll soar above our sadness
and remember that we are above
all of it
I
i want to kiss you and take you on walks heading nowhere and buy you cigarettes and read you poems and books and listen to music with you and make food for you and make love to you and just be yours.
Lately
I've been getting paper cuts
on a daily basis.

It reminds me of
your words
&
my heart.
