I'm the kind of person who leaves notes on others cars rather then wait around.
empty school buses
where are the children.
they do not exist.
empty coffee shops
where are the addicts.
sleeping in.
I don't know you anymore.
You're entirely selfish.
A note flapping under your windshield wiper.
these white flowers with yellow centers look like fried eggs.
burning in the sun.
we are declared healthy but cough incessantly.
in the back of my throat there's a constant itch...
from all the things I no longer say.
It is so easy for you to walk all over me
I just pick up my bones throw them in my bag and become my shadow, long and unattentive by nature.
I'll slip straight through you.
Don't play the songs written under my name,
its entirely useless now darling.

I am a wilted black rose. Searching for cracks of sunlight, to nurture me. And to help me grow.

where are the addicts.

I believe your making me one, incredible as always , take care

New lovers are nervous and tender, but smash everything. For the heart is an organ of fire
