Visceral Obsession

Be careful baby and look both ways before you cross my mind

I play our memories selfishly

A jukebox jam just for me

You are a beautiful song i’ll never sing

Trapped in a spider web of your breath-cloud

Clinging desperately to the cold 

tangled in your sticky-eye gaze I -- 

your smile breaks me softly

(never) leaving like a spilt coffee stain 

you are Here

In the dark with a daisy mouthed assassin

folding origami dreams 

to burn in the light of day

concrete highway in my veins

and quicksand in my ways

I cannot be here again

I cannot help but be here again

I taste the chlorine tears

that never fall

and smile
