Baby Mine is still the saddest song in Dumbo
when I was a kid,
I had a rock tumbler
I’d pack it with beach stones
listening to the thing whir and crunch
for a month until I excitedly
unscrewed the cap
sieving off the thick granite slurry
to reveal my polished agates.
I kinda feel like my spine makes
the same noise these days
every morning it cracks
like a mother fucking glow stick
that refuses to actually glow
every morning I sit in the shower
washing off sweat and sleep ...
I had a rock tumbler
I’d pack it with beach stones
listening to the thing whir and crunch
for a month until I excitedly
unscrewed the cap
sieving off the thick granite slurry
to reveal my polished agates.
I kinda feel like my spine makes
the same noise these days
every morning it cracks
like a mother fucking glow stick
that refuses to actually glow
every morning I sit in the shower
washing off sweat and sleep ...

Sometimes
Sometimes I get lost
in my own little world.
Detached from reality,
Apart from civilization.
Without a single worry
about what I may
be faced with.
Just me, myself, and
my obligations.
My little people.
My marks in this life.
My offspring.
My reason.
To want to keep breathing.
My ‘something to believe in’.
Everything else is temporary.
I can’t stop them from leaving.
So I’ve claimed all I truly need,
to stop myself from grieving.
Sure.
I fantasize of a
fairy-tale styled
love-life. ...
in my own little world.
Detached from reality,
Apart from civilization.
Without a single worry
about what I may
be faced with.
Just me, myself, and
my obligations.
My little people.
My marks in this life.
My offspring.
My reason.
To want to keep breathing.
My ‘something to believe in’.
Everything else is temporary.
I can’t stop them from leaving.
So I’ve claimed all I truly need,
to stop myself from grieving.
Sure.
I fantasize of a
fairy-tale styled
love-life. ...

There will be challenges
Have you ever wondered is it possible to be able to separate thyself, from the negativity and drama with it's deepness of inner vibes. Filled with hurt and pure confusion and drama and madness, that will have you going completely insane. 😮💨 For sure it's necessary to be able to share, our thoughts and insight and bring, honest and truth into the realness of a true relationship. AS it is with a strong commitment and real consistency. To do what you say you came into my life to do, and be able to prove that to me, as man to woman as I prove myself to you, as woman to man....
