i still taste medicine on my fingertips
lonely streaks of hair down your face
as you laugh and lie awake
as i cry and break down in sun's ray
rushed conversations are always a mistake
birds who can't fly are the only ones
in my wake
but hey,
i'm doing okay
i guess midnight hallucinations do end
but i still think back to the times
where all we said was hi, hello, and goodbye
and
when we were thieves of broken hearts
we collected the ones that were stomped on
ripped apart
bitten by
and abandoned to feel empty
instead of vigorous beating ones
like all the blue boys
and jingle girls in the world.

silver looks good on you
i'd hate for it to rust on your neck
that necklace looks pretty with your
initials on it
you can't escape the frown
you'll never see it turn upside down
roller blades and skating rinks
were my only fantasies
when i first laid eyes on you
telling me to stop worrying
about microwave thoughts
and let myself loose for once
so one day i dressed up as a circus clown
and performed your favorite act
the fool who fell
the perfect role for me and you.
