love
from college
a smile to saw the sea
autumn greenlight
quietly
kill me
so whispering girls will guide me back to sleep
because love is not the only way
that people get through the day
hide beneath my sheets
where god can't see me
quivering under a face
in lovely agony
and I'm waiting, and I know that
something's coming
waiting for something
to be everything
to me

(back to bed. into my head.)
i am here
i am somewhere else
another new low of hope
i'll see the headlines, we'll make the jokes.
but at whose expense? (my surroundings.)
when this white life i've been eating
turns to gray ash in my mouth
and my love spalls off in billows
reveals the bleakness that my core holds:
maybe my eyes are going hazy
but the care exchanged seems lazy.
did my friends and i get tainted
by this violent world we created?
"have you found a therapist yet?" (by my surroundings)
i lost my will
in the garden of my id
i am here:
i am trying to disappear
but at whose expense? (my surroundings)
try to understand a little piece of the landscape
as it makes the same blue sound under soft white clouds
for seven hundred thousand years
how long does your focus last?
your dread is fake. your dread is real.
my dread is fake. my dread is real.
too tired to save a life
to give mine back
to be 'perfect' anymore
a memory of a memory
at whose expense?
(my surroundings)
