recycled questions.

we needed to get out of here for a while.
maybe we could try to starve ourselves of this town.
start a fire.
throw our cigarettes in the river, followed by our feet.
the flames send the stars from the sky & we've replaced them with our hands.
i've never known nights like these, where voices are lifted up in smoke, eyes are closed but hearts are opened.
maybe it's possible to starve ourselves of this town.



i have always labored over lies,
though i have never labored over so many words.
i have always been good at holding my tongue,
but i have never found so much difficulty in silence.

i lost sight in the sun.

i bet they look at my photographs & wish they lived my life,
while i am simultaneously looking at theirs & wishing i could do the same.

i am alone in a bookstore corner, scanning pages with eyes of cynicism.
you swear that if you saw me, i would no longer be alone,
yet here i sit for another day.
i choose written words over phone calls & road trips.
i am notorious.
say something, do another.
i swear i'm sober, then take another sip.
adventure might free me of this,
but nothing will ever kill it.
no one ever gives out invitations to a dance party.



32 days clean & i am shrinking.

erosion.

i wish i could connect the stems of my brain to a typewriter & record all the thoughts that are constantly fighting for my attention.



the leaves sometimes sound like water.
have you noticed?



i'm crying out to God but holding hands with sin.
