looks a lot like me;

(( s h r o u d e d )),
rain c l o u d eyes.
twįstęd tongues
which speak in lies.

manipulates,

measured malice

dosing mostly those
that mean the most to me.
and though it be the me

pour your problems out,
and ill drink them down, keeping
you safe satiates.

just a little bit.
raw, red, renegade
everlast lips,
embraced by my face with

punishing hits.
south paw kid
so i always lean left,
but you can view through me
so there's no defense left
i know it's a battle
to win at all cost.

to lose how we lost.

this place has some strange ways of pulling you
u n d e r
the world feels so small and there's no time to
w o n d e r
about the places my mind wants when it
w a n d e r s

i rack my brain and i
try to
remember
the way that it felt way too warm for
november
and the way that it felt like her mood changed the weather
and how i'll spend forever just trying
to
*forget her

what would it take
to fill perfectly
a page with line
after t i g h t r o p e line
of the way your cheeks puff
when you've had enough, or
the way your breath bounds
from your body when
i say 'we were made for love'?

what it would take
i do not have. for
i do not have you,
and without you,
my pen will not move.

Nothing was lonely.  
the weight of his dark.
the waste of his light.
Nothing was alone.*

Nothing needed Something, but
there was only Nothing there.  
there was only Nothing before.
there is only Nothing after.

only during, was ever there not only Nothing.
only during, did Nothing have Something.

Something was lovely.
the state of her heart.
the taste of her lips.
Something was love.

and
Nothing could not have
wanted Something more
but
as the saying goes;
you can't have
Something for Nothing.

Were you weak,
I would not worry.  

Would I know that
you would return to me?

I don't. And I won't.  
And still I do not worry.

I worry because
you are not weak, and

I would love you
even if you were.
