Her Friends Yelled "April Fools!!"
Matt saw Hilary standing naked.
She was waiting for Tom to arrive.
Her friends yelled "April Fools!!"
That made Hilary cry with closed eyes.
Matt got naked and behind poor Hilary.
She was waiting for Tom to arrive.
Her friends yelled "April Fools!!"
That made Hilary cry with closed eyes.
Matt got naked and behind poor Hilary.

Everything.
Seems so.
Pointless.
As though.
Nothing.
Improved.
Years spent.
Refining.
My writing.
For what?
Comments.
Live chats.
Everything.
Transitionary.
Liminal.
Passions.
Are what.
You can't stop.
Doing.
Even if you think it's futile.

Love was.
Something.
I used to.
Long.
For.
Now.
It's just.
A sentimental.
Performative.
Poorly done.
Art.
Piece.
Something.
I used to.
Long.
For.
Now.
It's just.
A sentimental.
Performative.
Poorly done.
Art.

Every.
Waking.
Moment.
I long.
For the still.
Sound.
Of.
Silence.
Waking.

I long.
For the still.
Sound.
Of.
Silence.

Dirty Little Secret
I regret, not telling you I love you,
When you needed it.
I forget, I always needed you,
And I didn't see it.
I'm losing it; the one I see through.
That I reflect.
When you needed it.
I forget, I always needed you,
And I didn't see it.
I'm losing it; the one I see through.
That I reflect.

I bait my own trap
I'll wait for myself to walk in and trip the mine

I had.
Things.
To say.
But
I've.
Lost my mind.
Things.
To say.
But
I've.
Lost my mind.

A mistake
How do you make
Someone love you
When they don’t
A mistake
Someone love you
When they don’t
A mistake

Especially me
Especially me
I was made by God
A long time a go
Also I always try To
Think positive
I am always glad
That I am alive
Every day
I was made by God
A long time a go
Also I always try To
Think positive
I am always glad
That I am alive
Every day

Keep drinking more shots
Ready to go to your house
Another mistake made
Ready to go to your house
Another mistake made

Rue
crumbled by fingers
dead sprigs drop to the damp ground
with my self-respect
dead sprigs drop to the damp ground
with my self-respect
