Concept by James CavetGive me a pass this time
for the one you love
is in a shallow grave.
perhaps all this light
makes you blind.
a little rewind.
a little to the right.
whatever's left of you
come here right now.
I just want my immortality.
I am getting further from the truth;
deeper, sadder, nostalgic.
so I pick a fight with you;
starting with this pen,
ending on the floor.
someday we'll know what
unknowable mysteries inhabit
breath and skin but for this moment
I am in their stories;
I am everyone,
everything.
A little less;
a little more.
This is who I am. 03/29/2016 Posted on 03/29/2016 Copyright © 2024 James Cavet
