(0273) magnetic dream

there's a void in your bones. i'd love to notice what beckons you forth; what moves you about; what keeps you home when everyone is screaming your name. you're always in denial of all the other beautiful things that you see in your dreams. i meant to measure it this time, but i can never make it just the way that i'd like. your starving eyes are still open, but i can't afford to be one of the dead. your vacant heart is still sleeping, but you won't ignore all those things that you've read.

based on imagined fears, we click the pen until we've written down our lives. the way that you felt then is not the way that i still feel right now, and when we're finally gone, i'd love to be remembered for all the things i wished i could be. i never could be what they wanted. sometimes you taste like water, and sometimes you don't taste all that good, but that's fine because i never could remember what tasted bad and what it was that always tasted so good.

come feel my wasted feelings, and i'll show you that your love is all in your mind. cracked glass was hiding in the details, and my brains poured out like the blood that came out of your veins. come feel the sharpened edge of my soul where intensity is only met with sarcastic regret. connect the dots until i pass out.
"i'm sorry" is what i said until i could see... until i no longer had the will to blindly believe...
