It consumes me
The tedious typing
And the sound of Tappity-Tap Tap.
It holds me
The words like webs
And the elegance of the rhythm.

Does she see me
Or am I dust in the wind
Another soul to spend?
Because she's left me shattered.
There to pick up the tattered fragments;
Each fail is another stitch sown
On my death enriched stone
The thing I call a heart;
Desolate and dark.
Painful

Simply because Lady Nicotine gets me.
She's thrifty.
Knows when we're on the brink
Rent due and there's a leak on the sink.
Clink!
The pitter patter of dirty forks
On dirty plates touch low grade pork.
Ham sandwhiches on croissants
But is that really what we want?
NO!
We

Trimmed
Crisp cut?
Nothin' but nubs.
And the sound
Still ain't hit me
'Cause i'm not to be found.
I'm a wounded bird
Never wounded her.
Quite the opposite
I cried at the composite sketch
Her white feathers gone. Too much

The thoughts and sounds of you are endlessly seamless
My earthen banks collapsing against you the cutting river
Flowing slowly with tinkling sounds of ice cubes stirring bubbles
I cannot quit myself thinking of you even though ahead I

Give me a second chance
cause you know you want me to
I am like incense
I dance like smoke
spread my fragrance all around you
burning to ashes
just to show how much I love you
don't you get it
aren't you a believer
Give me a second chance
cause you know

Cameras and keys
Meant-to-be's and destinies.
Will you capture me?
Unlock what we will be.
Flash in my eyes
I'm blinded by desire
Opened with love.
Keep this moment still
Play it back.
Cameras and keys
Will save us.

The poison in your bloodstream defies life.
Hatred in your eyes project to the world.
Your cancerous words resonate through my bones
With an impact of an H-bomb explosion.
You're dying slowly.
But first
Kill those around you.
Make them suffer for your selfish indulgence.
Your blood is turning black
Like the

I had a rough day today
Putting out fires
Doing damage control
Again.
Running here to lend a ear
Racing there to give a hand
Putting everyone in line before you.
I had to help!
Who else was going to?
It's my job

Friends come and go
And it hurts my heart
Inevitable change makes us grow apart
It's too hard to hold on
Our lives get too busy
I'm curious if they truly miss me
We weren't meant for short lives
We are not built to deal with loss
We are not equipped to pay the cost

Folding paper scatters the floor and sculptures hang from the ceiling. I’m going to cut open the walls and place television sets inside that don’t work and directions next to the power knobs that say turn me on.
