Sadly mistaken if you think I’m going to settle.

I’m afraid of you;
not because you’re dangerous but,
because you are capable of doing
what I didn’t think anyone else could.
I’m trying to keep you out;
but, I keep leaving windows open
and doors unlocked,
then leaving you notes to
let you know where they are.
I don’t want you in;
but,…

The kinder ones fucked better, really, and after you were around them a while they seemed beautiful because they were

Oh, we’re better than that? Because it feels to me like we’re fucking dying here! We are not talking, we are not fucking, nothing is happening

Maybe it was your touch that moved me so much.

Regarding our stance. Perhaps what ultimately defines a relationship…is another relationship.

Open your eyes.

Not all closed eyes are sleeping, nor all open eyes seeing.

Do you think it is any nicer for remembering that there were times very late at night when you and I shared our aloneness? I will take my full share of responsibility for all this tragedy but I cannot spread beyond the limits of my reach and grasp, I can only bring you the little bit of hope I have and I don’t know any other hope except my own. If I have failed you it is just barely possible that you have failed me. I love you with all my heart because you are my own girl and that is all I know

Dad…

You knew me back when I was a younger me. You’ve seen me in all types of light, and I’ve been meaning to ask you if I’m doing alright…

When you left I didn’t see it coming, I guess I slept, it ain’t like you was runnin’. You crept out the front door slow and I was so self-absorbed, I didn’t even know. By the time I looked up, it was booked up. Put it all behind you; the bad and the good stuff. A whole house full of dreams and steps, I think you’d be impressed with the pieces I kept. You disappeared, but the history is still here. That’s why I try not to cry over spilt beer. I can’t even get mad that you’re gone. Leaving me was probably the best thing you ever taught me.
