(2014)
You asked what I knew about you and I thought up a list of twenty things
I wish you had told me that on the good days kissing you would make me think that I knew what happiness was and on the bad days
If I was once the tallest mountain your love was the wind that eroded me to nothing
It must be a wednesday or a friday or any day at all for I am painfully aware of the wo… that consumes me
There is something to be said of a true friend One who will pull the knife from your back One who will stitch the wounds
Under the weight of life I forget how to breathe and I feel suffocated I hesitantly make peace with the world
I’ve always been at the very least a little caught up on everything about you This idea of you
Hope in another form but no fewer letters and I’ve been hoping for these past eight years so I’ll just keep on
I don’t remember any anesthesia after talking with you but I woke up stitched back
I wrote this while thinking of you so I guess you could say this poem is eight years in the making
I would write a sweet poem and title it with your name if I loved you at all
I was like a rain cloud over a small garden and dammit if you weren’t that garden so full of flowers that I fell in love
There seems to be a drought in my… but who knows if it is the cause or the result of the war raging within me
I awoke in the dark next to you and more alone than ever I was amazed to hear your heart beating from
Just when I get back on my feet you pass on by and I lose my footing Again
