conversation
(5.7.21)

i'd love to watch the stars
i'd gladly volunteer to be torn apart
even if you send a glance
in an envelope
at least it came from you

i'd love to teach you writing
i'd gladly cheat and write a poem for you
even if it's an accident
every single glance
at least you know i breathe
even if there's no chance
at least you see me
(you do, right?)

i'd love everything and nothing
and all in between
over and over and over and over
and i'd love a conversation
