The Smartest Goodbye I'Ve Ever Had...
Promises of lifeless breath
came rolling from your mouth and chest
The heart of which has come to rest
in lies and misty kisses.
Milky eyes begin to cry
while tales much taller sail and fly
to this, and you, I say good-bye
no tears, just blooming wishes.
Burning building as I leave
skeletal strappings, bubble gum weave
all stuck haphazard by what you perceive
dust mushroom flattened and twisted.
Plodding on to the red sunset
where the people hold hands and love beget
I'll miss your arm upon which I slept
Forget my scent, please, I insist it...
