I didn't notice the crying man, too busy with me. I didn't stop for a moment to help the woman on her knees. I didn't hear the cry for help behind her polite "hello".
She makes my shoulders deflate. Won't ever see me standing up straight. Strawberry split personality, she's got so many. Years hanging over me. . I would not wait.
Here's to Julian, a man among a million others. Turned his back upon it all. Raise another glass then smash it up into its fragments. Walking barefoot on the ground.
I'm gonna take a run through the cemetery. For the therapy. Seems to always clear my head. Got so sick of all the wondering. So let's change the pace.
Uncertain grief we all release. Fluttering hearts for missing beats. The other side of sadness was laughter in a mask. Recovery uncertain like questions I can't ask.
I acted unaffected, yet the presence was unnerving. . It was her eyes, yes, her eyes that took me by surprise. It was the stare, yes, the stare. Her eyes are everywhere.
One broken heart in two opposite directions. A curse of the heart what was bound always falls apart. . A gentle smile. A subtle kiss. For what it's worth I'll always miss.
Last week I left a note on Laura's desk. It said "I love you, signed Anonymous Friend". Turns out she's smarter than I thought she was. She knows I wrote it, now the whole class does too.
Washington came first and he was perfect. John Adams kept us out of war with France. Jefferson made a Louisiana Purchase. In 1812 James Madison kicked the British in the pants.
i've had enough. all this arguing. leave this nonsense. . come get me out. look at the sky. see where you really are. . into thin air. you're not welcome here.
Twin suns of Tatooine. Taught me everything I know. Twin suns of Tatooine. Taught me everything I know. . There's room up there for second chances. Singles are fine but doubles are fantastic.
When I see you crying. If your tears run out. I will lasso you a thunder cloud. . When you're tired of trying. I won't stay away. I don't care what other people say.
I'll try. I'll stay. Hung and drawn. Laid upon the highland. I'm fine. I'll stay. Hung and drawn. Laid upon, each night. . Too bright.
I'll wait my turn. It's not my nature to rush the job. If you could trust. That I'll be workin' til I turn to rust for you. . So take my word. You can lift it like a baby bird.
I was black and white. I was innocent. I was seventeen. And it was beautiful. . I was a summer day. I had a uniform. I was innocent. And it was magical.
You turn me on. . My eyes always wandered. When you dance 'round your parlour. These lies hold no promise. Come level my solace. . Tide teeth for the slaughter.
Dissection wise. Half onion stone. Stuff your mattress. Loose dog loose. Waking to a pirate's breath. Hot and sour on the nape of your neck. Calls you by your mother's name.
Maizee, don't wait around. Steal another day. Competition dancers drop and snap their necks and fold. Shade too careful when you come. Weather slices through your ghost.
I feel your sorrow chasing tomorrow. There is no distance in your absence. If you call the monsters they will appear. Like I disappear Blackout. There is resistance behind enemy lines.
The roots are deep below ground. I like to walk with you in the evening. Up the hill and back down. I watch the mail boat from the clearing. . My mind is so confused, I climb back on top of you.
