I love you so much I forget things.
Might as well not even have a brain
how much a love you.
Where did I put that?
I don't know.
But I know I love you.
What did I just say?
I don't know.
But I know that I love you.

My son says hello to the sun
and the sun speaks back to him.
He asks the sun,
"How was your day?"
And the sun tells him, "It was good,"
and they smile at each other.

Two suns
so giving of light.

I thought it would hurt more— with us having been together for so long— but so far every time we’ve said goodbye I haven’t cried. I haven’t felt pain. I haven’t thought “Oh God, what have I done?” Is it wrong for me to feel this way? To treat my lifelong friend like an afterthought, an annoyance, a thing to take care of and move on from. I mean we haven’t always been on the same page fighting about appearances, in private and in public. And whenever someone comments it’s like being handed a ticket to Heaven or Hell depending on the day. We should not be fighting like this. It’s not that big of a deal. It’s not something men worry about. It’s not like you won’t come back. I think these thoughts and sometimes my throat refuses oxygen. Sometimes I see other partnerships and I think “Why can’t we have that?” Do you know? I feel like you’re confused too. So unsure of yourself. Not quite knowing in what ways you need to grow. Maybe you don’t. Maybe we’re done. Maybe all that’s left is momentary glances at each other. You’ll say, “Hey, remember when...” and I’ll say “Yeah.” And we’ll fall into silence, knowing that what we had before will always just be memories. }{ }{ }{ }{ }{ #poetry #writersofinstagram #poet #poem #art #poetrycommunity #writing #poems #writer #poetsofinstagram #words #writersofig #hair"

Every time I think that’s it, that’s the last of them. This house can’t hold anymore. Another hand reaches out and stops me from shutting them out. It doesn’t matter what room I walk into there always seems to be at least one fear hanging out in the corner; as if it too were overwhelmed by the rest of them. My fears are insatiable. I can never prepare enough for them. They consume what I have to give and take what I do not.

I, for the first time, felt like I belonged somewhere. I am not a particularly violent person. But In the auditorium, my favorite place, I wrapped my hand around the arm of someone who was not my favorite person, and together we played rock, paper, scissors. Whoever lost got smacked on their arm, hard. I am not a superhero. But When I saw the person who was not my favorite person wrap his hand around the neck of the person who was my favorite person, I teleported. Within seconds we had our hands around each other’s throats, ready to bring this high school musical to an early climax. When my favorite people in the world pulled us apart I took my places, slowed my heart, and danced without missing a beat. After the curtain my favorite person was angry at me. Because, apparently, I had no right to save them. I am not a superhero. I am not a violent person. I am not an outgoing person.

Good.

I can continue my vigilante work
spreading my special syntax

If people still read poetry

maybe they'll call me

When we ask him what’s so funny he’ll often say, “Oh, just remembering a joke I never told to anyone when I was younger.” He’s pretty friendly with the other guests when he wants to be. He even tried to put together an improv group with a few of them, but he eventually got so fed up trying to explain the difference between short-form and long-form that he just decided to do a ventriloquist act with his dentures. It’s actually pretty funny, even though you can barely understand him. He loves “rocking out”. He’ll spend all day in his favorite chair bobbing along to Numetal or Pop Punk. We had to put a ban on any Tech N9ne music, though. He was injuring himself too much. He’s not always so active, however. There are days when you can barely get a word out of him. And if a sunspot so happens to fall into his room, he’ll lay in it for hours, silently. The only word you’ll get out of him is asking for help getting up so he can use the restroom. He gets tired quite easily. It’s not rare that you’ll find him fast asleep by 5 pm, cocooned in his blankets up to his nose. He sleeps peacefully, for the most part, but even when he doesn’t he’s always up bright and early— he’s never late for his daily performance for his captive audience of squirrels. }{ }{ }{ }{ }{ #poetry #writersofinstagram #poet #poem #art #poetrycommunity #writing #poems #writer #poetsofinstagram #words #writersofig"
