Blurred street lights cast a
hazy reflection on the
city sidewalk. Its glowing
particles gravitate to your
glossy trench coat, bounce,
then gently disperse. We stride
through waves of gelid wind but
in your aura I am warm & calm.

Your cheeks appear smooth like buttons,
& I, like a curious kitten, am eager to press
my paws against them. But I do not.
This is our first night we have walked together.

You were a shooting star,
short lived but spectacular.
A streak of guiding light
in an aimless night.

& in distant skies
I still see flashes.

As the nights draw in
And the days become cold
I find its you
I am wanting to hold

A hand in mine
An arm around me
Legs tangled
Under a blanket sea

The wind howls outside
The rain bashes down
It’s definitely winter
I can tell from the sound

Winter sounds
Like the wind and the rain
But like laughter, from Christmas
All fun and games

This winter is different,
Because of, you know,
But we’ll soon have Christmas
There’s not long to do

I’m determined to spend it
Right by your side
I’ve told you already
I’ve nothing to hide

As long as I get
My Christmas with you
I won’t complain
If you don’t get me shoes

This year has been different
I think you’ll agree
And dating's not easy
When its just 3 degrees

We’ll find a way through
Like we always do
And we’ll get our Christmas
Just me and you

wondering
do you ever wonder why,
as i drive by,
how i throw my cigarette out the window?
so violently..
it's because i dont want it..
to fly back in.
sometimes i think,
you're just like that cigarette.
you fly back in..
unbeknownst to me
and burn my carpet.
leaving another mark,
so subtle.
yet another reminder,
of my black lungs
and black heart.
no thanks,
to you.

I have torn in two, never to be one.
I formerly only cared for myself.
But now I care for you deep as a well.
I cannot find the bottom of the flowing love.
My heart will continue drawing from the depth of my soul.
As long as you are here, I am complete.

it’s so much easier said than done
should i stay or should i run
i love you with my whole heart
but why does it feel like i’m falling apart
i know i need to let you go
but part of me cant take that blow
i want to continue to date
but we have to end this before it’s too late

i can't stop staring into your eyes
you're so tall
so blue
so deep
like an ocean im being swept away in
thank god
for those swimming lessons as a kid
YMCA
you want me to be your bae
how come im not at peace?
like when you're sitting there
floating
staring at the stars
the same twinkle in your eyes
when you look at me
im drowning
quick
save me
