well isn't it

you were beautiful
for awhile
and in my memories
you still are
but in reality
she has tainted
everything
you were to me
so thoroughly
that there's
nothing left
of you
for me to
admire.

i'm sure
you are
relieved.
isn't this what you wanted?

i'll always wonder if
you forgot about it
forgot about me
or just didn't call

i'm not sure which
would be
worse.
it was my birthday but it was a ****** 24 hours.

i want to connect the freckles
on your faceneckshoulderschestarmslegsback
because maybe then i'll know
what love looks like.
i don't love him, but maybe i can learn to.

i don't speak science and
i don't speak God.
i wish i spoke either,
i wish i spoke both.

i'll be patient for you
if that's what you need

(it's the only way i know
how to tell you
i love you)

Spring

shakes off
winters late advances

to flirt
with summer.

instead of picking flowers for you
i'll take you where they grow,
together we can watch them die
when heat gives way to snow

(i just want to be with you
as seasons come and go)
hello, i'm rhyming today.
