"youme" poems - Hello Poetry

Where do you stand. Now Alone in the sun Miserable earbuds and backwards youme Forever this moment in the loneliest place in my life suburban parking lot, USA Covering secret hope with blankets of anonymity Money just cools them Freeze each other LIKEICECRYSTALS can't even be together Never. Even when it can't get worse in the sillyfuck of summertime sticky countertop of hangover Seasons without the hot seatbelt of safety and the inoutness of us not careful always Sick bruised overdue goodbye life sentence Stealing it back with the work of no worries Just hoping art still means something just ******* praying it's not empty like your neverpromises and your didntlies Cowering with broken heart fever Burying strangers shrugs in coffeehouse choketears Who-gives-a-fuck cliche misery I hope your own shadow haunts your periphery Like narcissus' fear of drowning Sometimes the goodbyes are should have A whole year of goodbyes All I wish for is the end

Fear of Drowning

Where do you stand. Now Alone in the sun Miserable earbuds and backwards youme Forever this moment in the loneliest place in my life suburban parking lot, USA Covering secret hope with blankets of anonymity Money just cools them Freeze each other LIKEICECRYSTALS can't even be together Never. Even when it can't get worse in the sillyfuck of summertime sticky countertop of hangover Seasons without the hot seatbelt of safety and the inoutness of us not careful always Sick bruised overdue goodbye life sentence Stealing it back with the work of no worries Just hoping art still means something just ******* praying it's not empty like your neverpromises and your didntlies Cowering with broken heart fever Burying strangers shrugs in coffeehouse choketears Who-gives-a-fuck cliche misery I hope your own shadow haunts your periphery Like narcissus' fear of drowning Sometimes the goodbyes are should have A whole year of goodbyes All I wish for is the end

And- Comes between youme. ConnectorAndBridge, Unobtrusively. A wall, a barrier to me. And- Sneaking in heartsoul. And- Ready to rockroll. And- There to remind us, What separates binds us.

Bridge over the river Us

And- Comes between youme. ConnectorAndBridge, Unobtrusively. A wall, a barrier to me. And- Sneaking in heartsoul. And- Ready to rockroll. And- There to remind us, What separates binds us.

Archangel Patpàpa ruddy mine sigh.. I'll be seeing you. ~~~~~~~~ Our old rddbba song. In all the old familiar places That this heart of mine embraces All day and through In that small cafe The park across the way The children's carousel The chestnut trees The wishing well taking in your daily coin twenty years? true love how not to adore you. I'll be seeing you darling In every lovely summer's day In everything that's light and gay I'll always think of you that way I'll find you in the morning sun And when the night is new I'll be looking at the moon But I'll be seeing you But I'll be seeing you you "youme, meyou" my sweetest dearest love. ~~~~~~~ In Hollywood by Billy Holiday For Karijinbba. 74-95-05/2020. revised 06-16-20

Before we were we, I wonder – Was there a you, was there a me? When you are the silvery wick and me the flickering flame do you solely burn me or am I instead to blame? When you are the polka-dot cup and me the flavored tea do people hold you up or do their palms enfold me? When you are raw rhythm and me the underlying verse have you welcomed me in or did I call you first? When you are the pillar and me the trustworthy wall will you take care of me or shall I give it my all? When you are the cherubic sun and me the radiant ray do they call out to you or is it for me they pray? When you are the merry dawn and me the sultry night do you give birth to the day or do I have that right? Before we were we, I wonder again – Was there ever a you, was there at any time a me?

YouMe

When you are the polka-dot cup and me the flavored tea do people hold you up or do their palms enfold me? When you are raw rhythm and me the underlying verse have you welcomed me in or did I call you first? When you are the pillar and me the trustworthy wall will you take care of me or shall I give it my all? When you are the cherubic sun and me the radiant ray do they call out to you or is it for me they pray?
