Only human- part 3

The bed creaks as I slowly rise, nobody here though I’m not surprised.

My hair knotted and straw-like, crackling as I pull it back. 

My mind has been gone for days, weeks, months,

Though I feel like maybe I never had one. 

No such thing as good,

No such thing as better.

My last memory was years ago, If i’d remember. 

Was she there, Carlah Rae….

  • mancini and mood lighting

    a symphony of saxophone and jazzy drums plays

    for a crowd of men in wide collared shirts and women in boxy dresses

    in their hands are drinks

    martinis and manhattans 

    with glistening ice cubes inside their glasses

  • proximity

    we're so close. 

     

    I am wrapped in the touch of another 

    suspended in a state of contentment

    and soft safety. 

     

    the lights in my room are warm

    and in the mirror 

  • kid

    where the soft grass meets the sea

    is where you'll find her

    for eternity now. 

     

    young and alive in vivid shades

    of every color
