i am writing nothing. i am thinking
about the shadows that the lamp
casts on your face and how the
shape of your lips reminds me of
soft soap.
this is no longer nothing, and now
i am thinking about cars with
backseats full of things no one needs
and how among those things i
saw a sketchbook. and i tried to
resist the urge to pick it up and
draw your hand, palm up to the sky,
holding rain. draw it while the car
sped to somewhere i don't know,
driven by someone i don't know.
i might have at one point said that
love is as strong as death, maybe
stronger. that i imagine a black
figure in a white tie holding a cigarette
at a graveyard and thinking, it
would not be so bad to die. thinking, i
would be buried between my parents, lie
between them like i would on their
large bed when i was small. squeeze
between them and tell them of my
nightmares. except there would be no
more nightmares, ever, and they would
say, we missed you. turn your face to
the sky and breathe out.

Waking dream
Crimson roses fell from the sky
But honestly? I didn't care why.
I plucked one up, then started to run,
Dancing in the rain was never this fun.
I ran to you, my heart ablaze,
When, accidentally, I fell into a maze.
A room filled with walls and mirrors,
With ghosts and nightmarish horrors.
I stumbled out, still running to you,
When Sphinx asked me if my heart be true.
I said yes, and she let me go,
But I decided I'd take it slow.
I walked through a forest, it was you I sought,
But out of the trees, something caught
My leg and I cried out,
You started to laugh, while I to shout.
You took the rose, then let me fall,
You too
