OH Mar 2023

Lost

how do I forget
what everyone else has already forgotten?

OH Mar 2023

Less

princes with horse carriages
don’t exist
instead, there’s men with cars
who don’t bother opening the door for you
my how the times have changed

OH Mar 2023

Come

the way I fit into your arms so perfectly
it was like you were the calm and I was the storm
peaceful

Dial Tone

you cried out for help
and I ran to pick up
but it wasn’t my line you called

OH Feb 2023

Burn

the way you flick the end of your cigarette bud
in my direction
makes me realize you never meant to take care of me the way you said you would

OH Feb 2023

Glow

The color of your toothbrush is everywhere.
The fruit.
The leaves.
The sun.
I no longer like orange.

Permanent

you say it’s only temporary
but temporary is written in tattoo ink
