broken heart beating
at about 7pm the light in the room is pretty close to how it looked
this morning. im sorry i only slept 2 hours last night.. maybe its 
just a defense mechanism, or im hoping the sleepiness will relax me.

that one time we were under the trees and the breeze blew around us 
like we were one person, we called it a perfect moment. 
a mechanism set in place
the offspring of two retards

we were kicking ass and taking names. 
we we're throwing rocks at dead cats graves.
 
we walked on rooftops in moonlight. 
we found a few good things in life 

the slightest touch of the softest skin
to sleep and never come back again. to shut you out then pull you in.
everything feels so crazy when youre next to me. i wake up screaming.
i always make the same mistakes but im not confused..
you are the grass and i am the roots, just before we fall apart.
you have to be who you are, you always retreat to the dark
20 feet isnt that far.
ghost of a ghost.
cant let go of your dreams
stared at the sun til the middle of your shadow
cast one thousand invincible chains

you always sleep with a stone in your hand
i cant stop humming that song you sang 
to plan to fail
when failed to plan.
like a bad independent film
made with my own two hands.
put your palms over my mouth so i cant voice this need
hold fast though i bite them and you bleed


a unicorn can never feel regret 
because they aren't real.
