    constant misery

    smitten cause the last word was never written
    the distance didn’t, you just weren’t driven
    always sitting, always something hidden
    but i told you, i let you vision
    i’m not a wiccan, i’m not going to hold you prison
    not going to be a villain and follow some system
    the love was forbidden, i sit here, i’ve forgiven

    i just want you to listen
    i’ve seen you glisten, i wish i could’ve pictured and printed
    i have a picture, you standing in the kitchen
    i never want to play victim, i just wish you committed
    i wish you would have told me the condition
    instead you held me in the distance
    ‘cause my love is sick and i gave it all i could give
    most would generally forbid, but i admit, i rid
    i would never quit and i would do it all over again
    because i told you, i’d never trade my memories of you
    for all the money in the world
    and i’ll never regret, i’ll try to limit your visit in my memories
    so i don’t live in constant misery

    no longer

    no longer check on you
    no longer have your calendar
    no longer waiting at the flight deck
    no longer have an effect
    no longer dead
    no longer in debt to you
    no longer a wreck because of you
    no longer sticking out my neck for you
    no longer taking a step back because of you
    no longer guessing because of you
    no longer a complex because of you
    no longer perplexed
    no longer an object
    no longer waiting on a text
    yet i still have respect for an ex

    feelings from a human

    lying at your mercy, i look from mercury
    i gaze, i find, i see, i saw
    crying on your shoulder, i wish
    i lean in and kiss your forehead, i wish
    playing fish, this is it
    i knew it
    things don’t last when you show it
    ‘cause everybody wants to want it
    everybody wants nonchalant, to vaunt
    to lust, to feel the thrust of
    something lush

    selfish for you

    please, please me
    seize me, freeze for me
    appease the need for selfish tendencies
    lie, you create enemies, living with felonies
    looking for a life long remedy
    living in the seventies, longing for memories
    in my twenties, i feel the need
    for you to feel free, i ignore me
    i treed, looking from a high
    asking for you to look for the blue sky
    for you to spy, for you to look at time
    this is it, this is the ride
    this is your life
    all i want is for you to feel the prize
    no longer strife, pull the knife
    to live this life

    real brutality

    i wouldn’t even wish this upon you
    i’m not that cruel
    to make someone fall in love with you
    only to rip them apart, all while the person
    that raised them dies in front of their eyes
    i’m not as cruel as you
    it’s like april fools
    cheers to you, tears to you
    now my fears revolve around you
    i hope one day you’ll evolve
    i hope one day my fears dissolve
    and i hope one day my daily thoughts do not involve you

    you love me in my dreams

    my dreams are full of you
    the theme always follows you
    those damn jeans, they’re always on you
    my heart drops as i look at you
    i know i’m dreaming, but i’m gleaming
    i’m no longer screaming
    the voices are no longer scheming
    my tears are no longer teaming
    the night’s always redeeming
    because i see you and i’m beaming
    but i awake and i break
    i’m back in the lake and i feel so fake
    had everything at stake
    but you slammed the break
    and everything began to quake
    next time i won’t embrace
    so i don’t have to escape
    i’ll be okay

    thoughts after a coma

    have you ever, been ever, lived ever
    a zombie, this body, i drink my coffee
    i think, i become afraid, quite awfully
    scared that i’ll get into a coma and forget we ended it
    i awake and i smell your aroma, i think
    are you somewhere in oklahoma
    did you ever finish school, get your diploma
    i remember, you weren’t too far from corona
    we lived so close, back in arizona
    i lived for your persona, i remember
    thanksgiving in barcelona
    did you ever go, i remember, forever
    but i call, no answer, do i remember
    did you have cancer
    are you alive
    or did i forget the stricken ember
    what if this happens
    and i don’t remember the disaster
    and i never get an answer
    and i live with an anchor
    no laughter and i don’t remember anything after
    i don’t remember you were just an actor
    and that this chapter went faster
    but it was everything that mattered
    so i sit scattered
    and i don’t remember
    so i sit battered
    and i’ll never gather
    anything after

    a vulnerable boy

    don’t, i’m vulnerable, i’m on call
    here i stall, adjacent the dance hall
    looking like a rag doll, waiting for a recall
    holding up your bearing wall
    can’t break it down, even though, above all
    i probably love you most of all
    sorry you couldn’t throw down your boxing gloves
    to know what this feels like
    the glory of, to love

    cemetery

    picnic
    sandwich
    wine and cheese
    breeze will seize
    hands around my knees
    everyone sees
    sitting in a deep freeze
    you squeeze
    i feel free
    please don’t flee
    lost my key
    no longer a licensee
    i guess i’ll leave
    i was naive

    i’m late

    i love you so
    i can’t let you go
    i know i sound so
    pathetic but
    i don’t regret it
    maybe i shouldn’t sweat it
    shouldn’t have spent it
    should’ve went with it
    too late
