  • Honestly

    ,

    Nothing like you;Avoid these whites, the lies you say,Roll across your face.

  • LooselyI’ll base jump with you around my necklets see how far down you let me go before you stop me in my tracksthe subway drove us up to the sedan,we rode through these streets on benches and rails,you lied about everything,so you get the rope;a bottle of poison and the electric chair;you think I like…

    If I’ve lost my touch with words, These unique riddles then will hardly suffice, If in the pretext I presume that you’ve counted the minutes away,I relapse into this pile of drugs, to relieve myself from missing the young face I see once a weekYou can hide but never run, so far away I’ve finally…
