Insert Me In Your Life

Insert me in your life when you want, I'll wait patiently
Ignore me until you need another performer in your show
And I'm the most experienced one there is
I'm always happy to play the role of your love

Elect me as president once again, you know I'll accept
I'll bask in your glory, run with you in fields of wheat towards a glimmering sunrise
Pretending I'm dumb enough to believe it'll last forever
Pretending I don't live for the sensation of your hand on mine

    and I took one

  • It Never Ends

    the silent clock

    my desk, now darker

    with dust like chalk.

     

    his name in my phone

    my swimming mind

    his teeth were like moonstone, 

    mouth open that night.

     

  • wanting, without direction

    today's air tastes like berries

    and overused metaphors. the shadows run

    across golden ground, and i look 

    at our old stone wall like they would in farmers' days.
