I’ve spent my whole life
unaware completely
of the words
cities and beauty
to escape from your mouth
I was an old child
a novice to my perspective
how i felt so conflicted by
the dispositions in me
with the fatal earnings
of my wasted time
oh the frozen earth it aches
with the treachery
that I’ve found in my body
are you a statue?
in a bed
you’ve got the draft creeping in
and the radiator clicking
so loud
I swear I can hear it
Oh my God!
It’s crippling to be
so lonesome in the city
who’s fiery eyes are waiting?
just watching to sink their teeth in
all the words I’ve said
have no flavor
no those chemicals have gone away
though I looked so nice on the wrapper
does this mean we’ll dissipate
reborn into different matter?
in a puff of smoke
we let go
to what it is I’ve only had explained to me
my heart’s clumsy
my hands are unsteady
but you’re lovely
and are you happy without me?
