how can i pretend
that it's easier to end
but it's you who needs it most
home i'll start again
living backwards go back in
to a place where time is young
these are the keys i long to find 
these are the words i spoke in the night

go a lonely wind
blowing on the subtle hint
we can't even know our names
can you believe it's not the same
hold you in a cloud that fills with games
when you could only look away
hold me in the gutter trying to relate

gone you did a bad thing
if you could only leave the light on
home is in a past flame
we're going to the funeral wrapped and stained
old forms in the garden
whole to blame
funny you should ease it
the sounds in the lantern
beam in the cave
my leg fixed to running
steam on the lake
with eyes that peel
reel in
time to go for a run

nouns - soccer ball

honeybee table at the butterfly feast

every time i hear your name called

Midnight Society

Die in Love

The Silence in New York is Deafening

What I Heard When my Head Hit the Ground

a smile with broken teeth

Anhedonia

i wanted it to be you

You Should Be at Home Here

The Ghost of a Dead Hummingbird Flying Around the Room

I Blew on a Dandelion and the Whole World Disappeared

Soft Whispered Prayer

What I Heard When my Head Hit the Ground
