Bassline

I feel the drumbeat.

I feel the pulse of the music,

Reverberating around my ears and brain,

Twisting into my heart.

I feel the bassline

With each hit of the sound

Pulsating your energy around you

Like shock waves

Hitting me again

And again

And again.

I feel every clap of the music

I see every head flip

I can tell you're in your element.

I feel the bassline

And it crashes a hammer into my heart

Breaking it

Piece

By

Piece

As your essence

Your youness

Blasts out

Drawn out and weaponized

By the bassline

And crashes into mine.

  • I think

    I think you make me really happy

    I think it’s sort of all-consuming

    I think I want to be with you every second

    Of every day

    I think maybe what keeps me up at night

    Is replaying you

    Replaying us

  • Together

    You’re different

    With all of us

    Versus just me.

    You’re different

    With a whole crazy friend group

    Than you are when it’s us chilling in your basement watching Stranger Things 

  • People

    People want things from me

    This incredible group of people

    They want me to mediate

    To laugh

    To help them with x, y, and z

    They want me to come with them

    Pulling me in different directions constantly
