toothless dogs eating candy as the sweetness turns to dust feeling bitter, as they crawl into their abyss if they want they’ll drink from the river if they want they’ll be made new but they know they’ll never sleep again ugly angels, hold their lovers whose sins can’t be cleansed licking the salt from their wounds to taste the world they left behind if they want they’ll drink from the river if they want they’ll be made new but they know they’ll never sleep again even if the dogs could talk i still wouldn’t give them my right lung even if your mother called i still wouldn’t pick up the phone cause i have nothing to say about nothing anyway if you want you’ll be a slave to your mother if you want you’ll lie next to another but you know you’ll never sleep again

darkness occupies what blatant love denies to fill a certain void which i seem to enjoy it always leaves me blind inside a broken place love can only heal that which isn’t real let me stay gone darkness understands gnawing on your skin to watch blood become blood purity hides it light from what i’ve become a glaring idolatry a haunted memory it always leaves me blind inside a broken place love can only heal that which isn’t real

True Blue 01:10
every morning i take my pills and you do not know me. i watch the birds weep across the sky as your eyes change a brilliant blue, a soft green. you can see beyond me. you look at me with grey in january though it is warm still, we cannot see the ocean in any direction. we drive to adams, tn, you move in grey and laugh in blue. we talk about your friend who has died- morphine overdose. there is someone beyond myself and you can see. you walk between the abandoned buildings and watch the train passing alone. my soul is a broken down ferris wheel blinking electric blue and red and green tears into the expansive nothing. true blue i carry you with me.
