today



today
by hardCore

you were there this morning
staring through my window
bright round and yellow
ready to burn yesterday's bad memories from my eyes

i slept under your warm smile
adjacent with death
cocooned in last night's dream
about past life's love

flashes of
ocean
a forgotten island
tribal drums
a sea serpent
mountains
thick forest
rain
and yes

her

all so tangible
before me

a thousand haikus
tatooed on the inside of my eyelids
begging to be forgotten
less quickly than i usually forget

i only remember the god speed rhythm
past the voices
and familiar faces
fighting demons
to join angels
who left me
one

with the blowing wind
that tips over the vase
breaks my sleep
jump starts my heart
and opens my eyes

to you

over and over, its the same routine

baby, i gotta leave. wait what do you mean?

all by myself; tryna figure it out

too much thinking nothing left to break down

dialing these numbers, knowing you wont speak

im sorry; cant help it; youve made me so weak

i really dont wanna but i know i gotta leave

feed me some lies, give me
s o m e t h i n g to believe
