enemy
are we really trying
if we are always fighting
eyes they are not meeting of late
a terrible state we are in
our gears are stuck or grinding
our fears are now deciding
who will be parading the loudest bell in the hall
we forgot the mirror
holds the the knots in our throats
i’ve started to go backwards
to find when i went sidewards
forgive the boy who broke his promise to love again
you are not the enemy my love

gone (are the words) - yet love knew my name
gone are the words
to explain
lost in the glance
of a phrase
yet love knew my name
gone are the ways
i like to hide
mouth full of teeth
and snobbish pride
o how I’ve been blessed

i was just a kid / with a crush
there was a world
standing smug between us
yet you knew the world
and quietly pulled me closer
i was just a kid with a crush
then came the dance
i asked you through my nervousness
and we swayed
o my god
you’re beautiful
you were a child
i was not much older
kindness goes far
when you are an outsider
and you knew

good boy
intermittent apologies
catastrophic anomalies
what is chasing you in your dreams?
ask your sister
to watch your dog
if he turns black
sing him a song
what are you chasing in your dreams?
dirty fragments
of a thought
made its way
into my heart
started questioning
if i’m the one
with the fault
i was just a good boy
caught in a row

the legalities of romance
i came to you
with my darkness
but it revealed so much more
the legalities of romance
what we say and what we lord
over each other to make ourselves feel better
you can’t unsay
what you’ve said
you can’t go back
you can’t undo
what you’ve done
you can’t go back on your word
my peace of mind is shaking
off my pretty handmade shelf
i want to trust my feelings
but my feelings have a tendency
to change as often the waves
that you and i are now drowning in
easy it ainn’t easy
to fall in love in the 21st century
