When I see you in my dreams your pupils are just as big
As when we are awake looking at
Each other with quiet certainty—
Is this the human condition?
I’m not sure hearts are supposed to be this full.
Would you put my cup down?
Unclench my jaw & laugh with me
In the middle of the street
One cinematic street light
Unfamiliar nausea
You turned thirty and we celebrated in a
Paradise that wasn’t there.
Oh, baby
Why don’t you let me drink your tears?
I’ll walk home from work tonight
We can meet
Halfway between
Blood & water
Call me on your lunch break & maybe eat your words?
