Come in

I'm still young enough to have my heart broken a few more times.

Keep on breathing

I thought I'd been in love before, heartbroken before.

I've watched my family die off slowly, and maybe I'm selfish, but there is no pain quite like this one.

I will win.

Love is a verb

There is a sweet moment tonight

When the cool rain air sets on my skin

And you are miles away at a bar

Maybe feeling the same thing.

I wrote that, it's mine.

Nothing scares me

"Experience: that brutal teacher. But you learn, my god do you learn."

Work

The moon is fuzzy on the curve,

Holes speckled through

Then black.

I wonder if you're looking at it

200 miles away,

Drinking FranZia from a beer mug 

Lighting pall malls like me.

I wonder if you remember the weathered bronze ashtray, 

The fading red paint outside my old place.

I wonder if maybe I imagined you

Like the moon imagines an edge,

All fuzzy

Then black.

-------

I wrote that.
