To my favorite person
(2014)
Just know that you have been lied to. By other than me.

It didn’t happen all at once The stress of impact And the heat of friction Combined Has a natural result
Letting go Is not a choice That I can just make There are no simple steps I can mechanically perform
I have been proud I have considered myself wise I have thought that I was Far above The failures of others
Self Determination It’s never free There is always a cost Self determination Requires
I want to have it all A full meal with all the flavors Of the single morsel You fed me
What are you selling Everybody is That thing that you have That’s icing and fizz Every encounter
Never again Will I be the means Used to deal my love an injury Never again
Everyone thinks they know what is best. The path they have chosen Must fit all. Knowledge of Right and wrong
Take care In how you engage the battle of who can care less. though it may
Passions pit perfervid. Smoking cinders, and coals endure petulantly past their prime. Blisters and puss
Whether moth to flame Or drawn in like fly to shit You captivate me
I’ve lost it again The words were just there Right on the tip Of my mind Now they’ve descended
You’re still My favorite person A thing Impervious to change Your memory
The battle rages on Leaves me weary Restless and weak But at This moment
It has never changed My heart’s inclination. I am still drawn to you. Having known you I cannot see you
