The come down
Added 2022-12-26 22:24:04 +0000 UTCHopes and dreams like amphetamines keep me high on the nights when I don't wanna fight
A quiet loneliness in my being
Lonewolf eating the mushrooms on the ceiling
Love somewhere lost like the backdrop of a scene
Cause I prefer the lonely times or so it seems.
His voice is a dark echo in my suboccipital
Calling me so I keep changing my name to feel normal
I looked it up the other day to redefine myself
It means to make a promise
Or a really holy oath .
And sometimes, into the darkness I am unafraid to go.
I did it just today to remind myself
I remember people fall in love, and stay in love, and it aches
I'm only still in love with the sea and the way her body shakes.
And the roses by the waterfront
With aromas that make me quake. And the way that you would smile, like it would all be OK.
What is love, when love is gone?
What is life when it's over?
Why are some Born into suffering
To live every day in pain
While others will never even taste what it's like
Medical trauma is a torture you can't explain.
There once was a key to my reckless heart
It's somewhere in Chambers Bay
Near the bridge with the combination locks
Where I always used to say,
You can't really claim or tiedown love
Except maybe in foreplay.
Can your heart be monogamous for a place?
It's you, it's always been you
I whisper to the Puget Sound
1000 Miles away
…
It's true.
