6th st never leaves me

nostalgia.
the deranged best friend.
all i see are numbers
all i think about is that porch
we used to sit in
dangling our legs over the grass
toes in the air
eyes to the sky
wide
high
and you were always high
popping some pills
smoking
taking
talking in the dark park
at night counting the angels
i wanted to be your angel
but you wouldn't let me hold your hand
but you wrote me a love letter
i have it still
somewhere
do i?
i do.
i found it as a surprise in a box with other letters and papers that i should throw away
the best thing about that house was that there were secrets and confidences
that we all never threw away
seriously
they are still buried deep inside there.

OUT OF SIGHT, OUT OF MIND

This new years started off hopeful.
But by the time 1am trolled in,
alcohol and tempers ruined what could have been a very peaceful and memorable night.
And yes,
this new years will be remembered
but not for the right reasons.

Oh, well. Goodbye you.
Can't let dumb shit get me down.

Here's to the rest of the year with high hopes and big sighs.

3rd st.

i remember
awkwardly getting out of my car
it was night
and the lights from the buildings
were beautiful
because they froze
somehow against your face
your face-
the smile that stretched always-
was bigger that day
and i did not know your face
as well as i would come to.
and i did not know as much as i would
about you
but i knew that you
were going to be remembered.

15.

and in the early part of the night,
you and i
huddled next to the foot of my bed
and watched the shadows on the walls
dance
we listened to Devendra in a trance
heads together
we wanted to kiss
but instead we talked
about nothing and everything
and nothing at all
about years upon years
and arms upon arms
and i knew that you would become my best friend
so much more so than any old lover.

children are playing inside the hotel lobby
and everyone is going crazy,
including myself and my best friend.
she is throwing away worldy possessions for freedom
and in this, solace.
there is nothing wrong with this.
i don't know what is going on anymore inside her head
but then again,
who am i to think that i own her?

WOAH.


Life has been pretty strange in such a good way the past few days.
