Salvage
Without you I felt haunted.
You were my other half.
Every time I made you laugh
I thought about how I wanted
To make you laugh forever.
I wasn't getting better
As you stood undaunted
In the face of grief.
Now I stand in disbelief
As you find yourself in love
With me again.
And not pretend!
It seems you've sort of
Fallen for me in the same way
As you did the other day.
I'm compelled to think of a dove;
One in the hand,
Or else I'm damned.
I believe that's how it goes, is it not?
So I'll remind you what love's about
By picking you up, dusting you off,
Hoping that you'll be soft--
One more heartbreak might sprout
Some evil in my soul,
Turn me

...
fine then, just leave me alone
let me rot in this "shithole" existence
you don't like it?
well it's none of your business
try to turn me around
put me on "the right path"?
it won't work
you haven't experienced such wrath
and then experienced the everlasting calm
but you'll never understand
all you know is the bad
all you remember is sad
i'm sorry you felt the need to cut me off
it's a real shame
and you weren't even involved
as if our friendship was a game
well i miss your friendship
you hurt me just as badly
as the one you criticize
still, i would renew our bond, gladly
if you weren't this way or that
stubborn, hard headed
just open you

This Heat
This heat is not a temperature
It is a weight, a drag on ones bones.
It settles around ones shoulders, limply hanging.
It is a slope towards shadows and places of rest,
A climb up level open cliffs called parking lots.
One steps inside, and over the course of long minutes
It uncoils and falls away in thick salty layers.
To go back and take them up again is herculean.
