Please Love Me Harder Than You Did Before You Guessed I Was Sinking

what's the point anyway?
someone somewhere is banging on a piece of wood
someone somewhere is banging on the side of a house
someone somewhere is banging on a set of drums
all of these things are outside of my window
the clouds turn a cool gray and i am swirling somewhere beneath them
i haven't talked to you in more than a week
i can't remember what sleep feels like but vaguely imagine it being nice
i only send snap chats to people i consider celebrities
somehow you feel more out of reach, and better than me
i may be lost in this sea, but i vaguely imagine you standing at my harbor
i drink down my bleach
and picture how nice the sunset must look from santa barbara

Muddled

I'm wincing
and not from all the fog, smoke and mirrors 
it's opaque, vague and distant

the amount of clairvoyance I need is extraordinary 


Home Sweet Home

there's a cat somewhere on my porch
there's drums playing inside someone's house
connor's singing drake, for some reason or another I feel great
sarah sends me a picture of her face
I thank my lucky stars cause I did something right
when lizz sends me texts it helps me sleep at night 
and dylan always calls me on the phone
so no matter what we're never ever alone 
we talk a long time 
even if he's mad
we talk a very long time
even if I'm sad
I love my friends, I love my house
I hate myself
but I'll work it out 
my plants are doing okay
I look at them and smile
thinking of victoria and leo every day
and jillian is now living in la
it's a full body excitement I can't hardly describe

I love it here I really do, I love my gaybors I love my room
and all my friend-fam at home I'll be seeing you soon
and you
there's always you
I still have your address
it's just I haven't needed it yet
