National Poetry Month
Heart, river, shiver, cold, masticate, wicked.
Laying by the river
Staring at my reflexion so I don’t cry
My heart is shivering mid July
Why would I wait for an apology
Maybe I should move on shouldn’t I
I still wear your jacket that you gave me
In the cold weather, I didn’t get to say goodbye.
But I forgive you, at least now you are happy.
Oh boy fly high
When I look at the sky I see you in the clouds
Rest in peace, I might join you soon. I can’t lie.
Those wicked acts won over you.
“Only if things would of been different” as I sigh
I will try to masticate all of this
It's getting dark, so I pull up a cigarette.
I walk away as I try to fry.
