Watching you
From across the room
I see myself in your arms
You’ve seen every part of me
In every room
Your sad eyes do
The talking
Your hands do
The comforting
After all these years
I thought we’d be friends
Watching you
From across the room
I see myself in your arms
You’ve seen every part of me
In every room
Your sad eyes do
The talking
Your hands do
The comforting
After all these years
I thought we’d be friends
Standing so high
Above the water
Ready to fall
Like a drop in a bucket
Heart racing
Mind spinning
Soul escaping
I’m finally
Ready to di(v)e

I will sadly love you
Until the stars burn out
When you try to kiss me
I’ll turn away my face
When your eyes lock on mine
I’ll look away
I will always love you, honeybee
Until the sun refuses to shine

Space?
You need more space?
You’re in fucking Florida
I’m freezing here in Idaho
How much more space
Do you need?

Personal lullaby
She sings me to sleep
Ensuring
“I’ll be seeing you”
Deep sleep
Is easier to come by
With her
Whispering my
Personal lullaby

One of those days
Yeah you know the kind
Where you watch
The sun set
The sun rise
Now it’s noon
You still haven’t slept
You still haven’t eaten
Sitting in a coffee shop
With clothes from last night
Making up stories
The man with the mustache
The child with sparkling eyes
The woman with the wedding ring
The shitty barista
Just me?
Alone in thoughts again

Hearts sink with
Each new slab of pavement
The sidewalk
It’s life, it’s love, it’s a path
To everything I need to let go of
A straight puzzle
Unlocking new slabs of breath
Walking past one to get to the other
Staying on one means
Not moving forward
You’re fading behind me
You’re the square
I’m stuck on

My fingers trace
The tattoo on your back
They have their own mind
Over to your chest
My whole hand covers
The beat in your heart
It feels like it’s not attached
Finally down to
My favourite part
The space two spaces
Beneath your belly button
The smoothest part of
Your entire being
I could
Kiss
Touch
Taste
You
There
For the rest of time

As I lay here
Watching the stars
Go out
One by one
I realize
Every one of them
Are little memories
Of you and I
Small sparkles
That once
Illuminated my heart

Everything changes
Doesn’t matter
If it’s for better or worse
Issues, situations, people
They’re different
Even slight changes
Can make or break
Everything
Please don’t be my
Biggest regret
