Untitled-6

Children with adult hearts,

You don't expect us to be aware.

I can see all I need to from here.

You share a look with her and don't expect me to care.

You think you're the void in my mind.


I sit on the convention table,

We have long conversations while adoring fans

Exude jealousy at me for knowing you so well.

I need you to understand...

It started with a smile.


I pass out at the afterparty,

You wake me up, brushing hair out of my face.

I lash out in my dreams, in reality.

You manipulate my chin to look into a space.

My groggy eyes see a flash of flashy white.


You help me to my room, through hope and fate.

You place my head under a flare stream of liquid ice

And wash away my sins for the night.

A zoo is all around me.

Butterflies in my stomach, leopard spots in my eyes.


The next morning you don't even say hello.

I don't even remember your name.
