Wish

I wish I found some local friends,
local friends who'll stay
I don't wanna love and leave anymore, I'm over it.
and I can tell they want to be over me 
and they can't.
my "real friends" make big deals about my problems 
they let me worry,
they don't care. 
I feel like I've only got two now,
one, two, three, four
gone
with the wind.
I wish food and colors 
and smells,
and voices,
and jokes,
and sayings,
and me,
didn't remind me of you.

    dean martin's voice booms throughout the house

    as I lay on the living room couch

    basking in heat from the wood-stove

    to the tune of an over saturated

    when I was thirteen 

    and scared of real life

    I gave out advice like candy

    showering my friends with hope

    and watched them grow 

    like sunflowers 

    out of a cold, dark earth 

     

  • what once was

    We lie tired 

    Bundled up in puffers and scarves 

    On the pleather seats of the bus that feels like home. 

     

    You rummage through your red lunchbox, 

    Unpacking each item carefully
