(2014)
I feel empty unceasingly until you come along and fill my heart to bursting
I’ll keep searching for the meaning of life and I hope I find it as crumpled paper nearish a trash can
I was like a rain cloud over a small garden and dammit if you weren’t that garden so full of flowers that I fell in love
Life is an uphill struggle Nothing comes easy and only hard work pays off I don’t like hard work was my 5 word protest
You were the wind beneath my wings but I was Icarus so all I did
I’ve kept my eyes closed most of these past eighteen years because I find it just as dark
I thought I could drink you away but I had to stop being so drunk on you first
I know that you were there in my dreams and in my arms Every dream we
Everyday brings a new death in three words give or take Some days I drown
Everyday I lived out a song written just for you But you could
I see words screaming for attention etched in the lines of your face Let me look closer
You asked what I knew about you and I thought up a list of twenty things
There is poetry in nature better left to be spoken wordlessly by the breeze
Hope in another form but no fewer letters and I’ve been hoping for these past eight years so I’ll just keep on
The road is long and winding like nothing you can imagine Too many off ramps to count but too few in hindsight
