i think i used to look up this street and dream

False memories might betray me but,

i think i used to look up this street, and dream,

dream about becoming one with the pavement

where the road met the sunlight

I could almost taste the harshness,

But nothing was pressing on me then,

The sky did not swallow me up,

The light was just there, glowing constantly,

It felt good to open my eyes and stare unto the sun

Crisp, cold mornings,

my childhood preserved in a perpetual autumn,

where I could not remember spring, or summer, 

I married autumn,

and I adored the winter.

    I feel like I'm imposing

    Which isn't fair for you to do,

    It's not fair that you make me feel like I'm on the outside

    I hate sitting here, trying to reignite what once was

    I thought we we're doing this anymore

  • unkept (wo)man

    subjugated to solitude eternal,

    only perceiving and watching love,

    maybe receiving it but never understanding it

    never internalizing it

    it bounces off. Doesn't stick,

    unkept and unruly and unclean.
