ANAMEMOIR

How much speed can you reach?
I wanna feel the wind hit my face
Like papecuts or bitter orange
I thought we’re something special.

Distill these feelings, nimbus blanket
like a new moon nowhere to be seen
When it rises and sets, we don’t know
I thought we were invincible.

Punching my chest, restless heart
Anxious without but not when you’re near
Do you know I wrote my songs for you?
When I get back, I’ll never be the same.

They say no sober person can write a sonnet
I actually relapsed when we met.
Someday I’ll get my own apartment
I’ll never be the same.
