sun drenched “driver’s arm”
barefoot to the peddle
full tank of petroleum
gearstick my fifth limb

my soul doesn’t want me to forget
that roaming is my home
I’m aligned when my feet aren’t rooted
permanently to the ground

clean shaven legs
lips stained red
more effort on me
than minutes with you

heels left alone
heavy stale air
full moon silence
resisting fear

are my ears ringing
or is my head filled with noise
tear ducts at capacity
impossible to overflow

walk to run
fours hours later
familiar pavement
different shoes

rolling tarred hills
guide my overdriven mind
rigidly seeking
anything but lonely

intoxicating malt
dreary eyed
concrete tunnel
energy deficient

emotionally addicted
satisfied wants
discarded needs
darkness engulfed

self-disrespected
challenge created
broken glass
power off

copper mask
red brick wall
deep dark eyes
naked inside

high on skyline glow
trust fills the room
hearts on our sleeve
I don’t want you to leave

layers of memories
sealing us like skin
let’s talk about love
what do you believe?

there you were
spaghetti strapped linen
radiating a healthy mask
so dissimilar to my daydreams

strength and resilience
shine through your forest ringed eyes
as we discuss our mundane problems
with mirrored minds

all of a sudden
another crack in my golden heart
when you left I was awoken
to our deep connection

I’m sorry for being selfish
for making excuses
I’m here now
and it’s exactly where I want to be
