Find me resting
contemplating
how your light
can easily change
my dark mood
and just like that
the drive you’re on
becomes mine
with a snap of your fingers
your sunlight
sees mine.
Are you blinded by the light or the dark?
Philosophers understand
my words
follow me to cafe shops
and try to storm my mind
with quotes.
Finding anything to write on
I must explore
how
I feel your pressed lips
against my skin
change from day to day
finding less reasons
to love you
as the chill
of your soul
freezes mine.
Letting the cards fall
on my dining room table
allowing the money to buy me less
moments with you.
I can jump into a moving car
or crash into a yearning
solely for you
with your black shirt
and cool jeans
perfect look to match
the beauty I see inside.
It’s hard to hide from me
as much as it is
for me to hide
from you.
Literally impossible
and all my dark
becomes your light
and all my drives
lead to your door.
Nothing stops the traffic
like you can.
No images more lasting
than those I want
with you.
I want out.
I want in
with you.
Have you had enough of my words
my ups and downs
my laying in bed
watching Breaking Bad
my dishes piled high
have you had enough
of my writing spells
my edits
my red hair?
At every turn
there’s a poem
brewing,
pour the fucking coffee
we must talk.
