and there is never anybody new.
We built a fort out of sheets and blankets.
I ran to make us tea. I brought it back and sat with you and wondered when you would kiss me.
you never did.
you built yourself a sword out of cardboard and poked me incessantly.
You have the eyes of a blue eyed baby.
There is never anybody new.
You use your hands to take my child.
We finger paint and touch each other.
I don't like these rainbows.
were too spread out.
your too far off.
Here comes the damn rain, drowning all the lepercauns in salt and hate.
we are them now.
we are
old.
and I don't like it.
I need honey in my tea it's growing bitter
there are wrinkles around your smile.
I can't bring myself to call you and hear your distance.
You collect my tears in a cup and go sit in the corner where you paint beautiful water color images...
straight from my misery.
you are the artist I am the ugly one.

but there is never anybody new...
I moved suddenly and the fort collasped with a quick burst of profanity
you just glared at me and climbed into the plane in the picture
I attempted to cause a storm but in my rage turned the whole thing blue.

I'm going through a rough time.
I can't write worth crap and I'm aware of this.
