Dried words
But they don’t catch fire
Choking in silence
Crackling away from memory
Our distance is apparent
Scorched affection
Why even bother zone
Together I’m feeling alone
In these dried words.
*
Heartburn for weeks
Every verse is returning acid
Nonsensical dreams
Mocking my personal maze
Hard to sleep next to a stranger
But I have the feeling
I’m the one who has changed
Can’t blame every error
On outside interference
The only consistent factor
Is right here in my body
In my mind.
*
I long for the days when we were swimming through minutes together
Fewer questions and concerns just captivated by each other’s company
I’d escape my indifference and moved toward positive possibilities between us
Presently I feel full of empty with a metal expression did you forget me already?
