febuary 3, 2024 — night time is a past-time
darling, the moon and stars know your name
every night i sing about it with shame
and every sonnet i write is the same
will you ever forgive me again?
in the dark of night, these terrors lie
creepies that crawl and bats that fly
something i can't face, in the clouds i'm still high
'cause my greatest fear is saying goodbye
but i used to bike in this neighbourhood of mine
lately all that's passed the streets is time
so it goes and the churchbells chime
i'll have to accept i'm out your light of lime
moon's not out tonight, maybe i'll be fine
maybe this time i won't dream you're mine
moon's not out tonight, maybe i'll be fine
maybe this time i won't dream you're mine

febuary 17, 2024 — just for tonight
my curtains are closed
writing down poems i could compose
the music is slow, we're going with the flow
and i can't help but ask "what are you thinking?"
"nothing," you say, but i know things aren't easy that way
but i'll let it be, i can wait, it's okay
we don't have to talk about it
as long as you stay, we can forget about it
sometimes i still get sick
anxiety's a blood sucking tick
i say something stupid and you say life's a dick
and for a month, we'll do anything but stick
so tired of trying to be
trying to get make it in life just to be free
feeling and fearing things we can't see
why can't we be just you and me?
but until then, i'll let the silence envelop
the noise outside makes your ears swell up
so we'll make a place to dry your tears
and even just for tonight, you can let go of your fears

april 1, 2024 — luna
oh, luna, tell me so
do you love me enough to let me go?
if you're the moon and i'm the sun
don't you think i'm better off alone?
oh, luna, i'm not the only star you'll find
rigil's brighter and toliman's one of a kind
being good is different from perfect
don't settle, consider every aspect
when i said you were the best thing to happen to me
i actually meant that only you ever stole my need to be free
oh, luna, i hope you'll understand
that going with you is to forget me
but being me won't stop my heart
from knowing we were written in the stars
and how i loved you from the start
always and forever, from here and afar

april 20, 2024 — secret garden language
im in the hospital in a waiting room
my thighs are sweating, the air hot and stuffy
its too early in the morning to feel like noon
thoughts of you are the only thing keeping me steady
my music flows smokey, the album's nice
messy poetry, paradox hearts & minds
weeds on my back, sick of putting you first
its ok to love him more, my heart's seen worse
i hope the 6 year old garden was fun
the fruits of your seed and spring has begun
so for the first time in forever
abatinas and cyclamens bloom in my weather
and when winter comes, what will you do?
will another bloodthirsty creature welcome you too?
will you drain them of life and trick them like a fool?
goodluck on the run, my laugh's one haunting ghoul

april 6, 2024 — situationship
are we still friends?
were we more?
when all that's begun has come an end
will everything be back to the way it was before?
and my soul hates everything about you
doesn't mean my heart can't miss you
so when you're gone and i'm through
i'll pretend to move on too
oh, brought to a stop and then what?
i'm faced with a paradoxical thought
childhood memories are soulful wealth
how do i tune silence out with itself?
but i knew it then, it was our last day
see it in your eyes, "sorry it had to end today"
i shake my head, smile wide and say
"it's okay, no hard feelings anyway"
despite everything back then
when i pick up my paper and pen
my mind drifts to you, sweetest bullet bitten
and i'll write the messages i can't send

december 7, 2024 — childhood dwellings
the leaves have turned brown
the world has quieted down
icy winds seep through our fingers
biting cold that sleeps and lingers
that weightless checkered blanket
wilted flowers basking in the sunset
that empty swing swaying
childish laughter keeps ringing
we cried and laughed
through times dark or daft
all good things come and go
naive promises of "i love you so"
as we carved our names in the rough bark
and vowed to protect eachother's heart
your arms became a home
and i became your own
even as time is not as forgiving
as when we were kids and simply living
the sea will guide us to our fated shores
tides sweeping sands of long-past wars
as the stars witness our beginning and end
the best in the world, my only friend
those handheld cracks in the tree
will always know it was you and me
