A Man Asleep

It doesn’t matter that I’m all alone
Books fill the pantry, clothes fill the refrigerator
Look outside and I see no one there
Only snow, trees, stones, and other things
Stare at the ceiling as much as I please
Wait until there’s nothing to wait for
Alarm clock goes off, but I don’t stir
Remain in bed, close my eyes again
And possibilities
Don’t look so good for me
I don’t know what to do
What’s wrong today
Feels like I’ve lost my way
I’m sure I’ll find it soon

Spring Break

Lay on the grass
Watch the cloud formations
Pass over us
Point out people
In the parks and laugh
Where do they go?
Counting objects
On our fingertips
I feel at ease
On the drive home
Sing along to songs
We’ve never heard
I was alone
You were around
Can’t get your smile outta my skull
Walk through forests
Hearing nature buzz
It’s better with you
Remember colors
That we saw inside
My bedroom
Drive past fields and
Past the shoreline
Nothing to do but
Lay on the grass
Watch the cloud formations
Pass over us

I like how you show me
Several old photos
Events that won’t be coming back soon
Reminds me of how it
Seems like my youth’s been left
Lying on a factory floor
It rains in my head all day and
The sight of you clears the clouds
Where did our time disappear to?
Slipped away on a pitch black tidal wave
Lose myself in meaning
Question all my hindsight
Not all past events suggest purpose
Where did sunny days go?
Memories of weekends
Better than they seemed at the time

Lambency
04:02
|

|
Staying up late underneath street lights
Leaves look beautiful
But I know they’re going to die soon
Sidewalk slowly cracks
In lambency, your face shines
Rehearse what we’ll say out loud
If it comes out wrong, at least
The right intent is present
Walking around underneath street lights
Buildings look so nice
But I know they’ll be torn down soon
Nothing really lasts
