13 April 2012

I didn't want to know
the you of alcohol and pills
shaky with pock-marked sway

I just wanted to see your name
in lights
to show that you are loved
so I could say to a stranger
I wish I knew.

  4. Here is a truth, ss. Nights like tonight, when I'm out of sorts and unsure of myself, being able to come over and read your lines, and spy on the lives within, it makes things that little bit less impossible. Thanks for that.
