My eyes are filled with coal
My lungs, are violent,
The morning lightning lights my eyes
I can’t find the words
“Breath” and “breathe” are things I can’t write anymore
You sit and watch the world slip through time like sand washed away
Is it all over now?
Oh, let me follow you down
This numbness won’t last
Don’t tell me this too shall pass
Don’t tell me
Better days are ahead
They released too too much at once
Now we all are numb
Do you even feel the hunger?
Do you know what you crave?
Or do we pack ourselves with light
Taking from eachother
To fill this emptiness
You know we all are blown through
Shipwrecked
We find eachother
——
The world is burning behind you, girl…
Keep your eyes on me
I’ll dance with you in the street
——
What if these days don’t change?
What will you do?
Will we adapt?
Even the tightest grip slips
The biggest hearts break
Can you start all new?
——
We lack subtlety…
Pack ourselves with light
We’ve all been blown through
We try
To make ourselves feel real
We try to make ourselves feel
——
Impressions,love…
I stand there watching her
I drink from her cup
She smiles
Her brown eyes
Remind me of fall
“Experiences” she says
I kiss her forehead
I’ll take a lifelong impression over 100 experiences any day….I whisper
She holds her breath
I feel a little bit of light leave me
Maybe we can remake the world
Maybe we can love after all
