Awareness,
So as not to fall back into a place
You’ve already been

A rib cage
Torn open
To let someone in

The unknown of a fog future
And separate/
Together lives

Youth in your eyes
Lending hope to your hands
And past to your voice

Self induced forgetfulness
That never makes sense
Or works for that matter

The familiar music
That made you cry,
And which
You probably don’t remember

The beauty that lies
In truth
And the lies that
Make truth beautiful

Yourself, your eyes
Your thoughts, your ideas
Your sins, your heart

Swiveling necks
In opposite
Directions

A forged friendship
Melted together
In the heat of tension

Waiting to hear what they have to say
A calling
To come back
To just never have left
In the first place
An indication of a mistake
The glint in the eye
Of a return
