I used to
Run in the
Rain naked and
Now I watch
Those that do
With heavy sadness
Not because of
Their self expression
But because of
Mine mine lies
Here only here
I used to
Run in the
Rain naked and
Now I watch
Those that do
With heavy sadness
Not because of
Their self expression
But because of
Mine mine lies
Here only here
Do you know
By now that
When I’m not
Thinking of anything
That that is
When thinking of
You sneaks in
Like when you
Sneak into my
Room and out
Of yours like
When you eat
From my plate
When I use
The restroom noticing
Upon my return
A Cheshire Cat
Smile on your
Face and less
On my plate
I guess we
Are both thieves
And sometimes just
Maybe you get
A second chance
Not a chance
Per ce not
A do over
Not a mulligan
But maybe a
Refresh taking stock
To what’s important
Things come and
Go and come
And go but
Some things are
Constant and consistent
Like your shivering
Or me lighting
Your cigarettes or
The sun and
Moon or your
Kindness and all
The silly things
That we do
Refreshing aren’t they
I do remember
When once you
Were my fall
Once when you
Prompted the harvest
Of emotions feelings
Those subtle notes
That changed me
From shade to
To to something
Else unimaginable a
Thing that what
Once was and
Now is what
Oh an afterthought
That coaster that
Clings to the
Class absorbing the
Humidity of quench
Am I just
A coaster placed
There to erase
That dripping thing
That you are
Or am I
That thing that
Pops your top
Releasing you in
To the world
Absolutely the hardest
Thing in life
Is realizing that
You’re time has
Come that you’re
No longer it
Or that but
Yet perhaps maybe
They will remember
You at 3am
