So you know..

hope lost

but who knows what the next race will bring.

Hope > Hopeless

weathered thieves raining rings, could u bring yourself to marry me.

She's all pearls, I'm all shells.

Take me away before the tide does.

Best Wishes; Bad News

your best wishes are my bad news
and I'm anchored down on your front porch
postcards are just cracks in the floorboard
an eye through the keyhole of closed doors

innocence, just made progress
kissed stone sheets with velvet lips
slipped our hands up welcome mats
a drop of sweat sunk the thermostat

and how does it feel
when anyone could fall in love with you?

My Well Dressed Disease

dressed down
a dangerously contagious
caricature of this evenings spill
the kind that licks the boardwalk
leaves a kiss on the window pane
a tear in my best suit
a tear in the corner of the eye,
i made from the corner of the room.
