  • Tumble Cake

    If I could have an ice cream,
    I’d rather buy two.
    If I could take a walk,
    I’d rather go with you.
    
    If I could make a home, 
    I’d build it with a view.
    Large windows while you’re outside
    so I could stare at you.
    
    Whenever I’m alone, dear,
    you’re inside my head.
    All the things I’m missing
    I’d hear from you instead.
  • Tripping

    Where wild ones play.
    In a jungle of laughing and longing.
    Built over time
    on overgrown mossy ground.
    Filled with a soundtrack
    of cackles in the dark. 
    Strange and unrecognizable to them.
    Though very much alone. 
    Sounds to which 
    they've kissed goodbye
    all night long. 
    Until trees fall and flowers wilt.
    All noise fades. 
    A cold, bare apartment
    called home.
    Never to see each other again.
    So it feels.
    Something she would call dramatic. 
    To say the least.
    Sometimes the most
    better left unsaid.
