You saturate me
Like newspapers in the rain
All my words run into each other
At the edges
Of the page

You inspire me
Like the breaking of the dawn
After the clouds of a summer rain
The light triumphs
Over tears

Good god.

Will I feel this forever?

Searching every face
on every corner
For a trace of someone
Who I cannot discover
Because she walks with another
And calls him her lover.

What if?

What if I chomped down on the bullet
And told her I loved her
And then she wished on a star
For a hole in the ground
To swallow her up
And a landslide to cover
What we have right now
as friends with each other?

She is..

My unobtainable Muse
She fuels the fire
I'm afraid I might lose

I burn bright in the night
From her flames
That I choose
To stand so very close to
Because I cannot refuse
The spit and the crackle
And the pain that informs me
That I'm still alive
Self abuse

I adore thee.

There is no combination of vowels or consonants that could wrap up and present the sunshine of July, to somehow make it more beautiful than it is.

Like drops of rain
We are falling
With the weight of
What is left unsaid

And it sneaks up on me
Steadily rising
When I am walking
Down Empty Hallways

And it pours in
From all angles
Slowly raising up my body
Squeezing the air out of my chest

Until every breath
Just whispers your name
