The 4th Day

Stabbing at weeds in the garden

Tension so thick

The roots cling to solid ground beneath the surface

Please let’s unearth it

[losingyourshitoverboys]

Stoned in the backyard

Sorry I had read so far

Really wish I wasn’t so stoned

Shaking my 8 Ball 

until I get an answer that suits the question 

“Should I bail”?

Signs always point to “No.”

I’ll keep asking until the algorithm points to "Yes.”

Early Phases

The phases of dating go something like this: 

Bang your head against a wall 

until you hear your phone ding

repeat forever 

[losingyourshitoverboys]

Sourdough

Preheat the oven, 450 degrees

Stick your head inside

Feels better than the feelings swirling your insides 

[losingyourshitoverboys]

When It Hits

Will I ever grow tired

of falling in love

with my own expectations?

[losingyourshitoverboys]

Inhale weed

exhale feelings 

[losingyourshitoverboys]

Five things you can see

Five things you can touch

Five things you can taste 

Wait

Anxiety?

Someone else is calling me 

[losingyourshitoverboys]

Zoom

Thinking of you is all acoustic guitars

low lighting 

killing a mood

when returning to reality 

[losingyourshitoverboys]

Sorry I’ve left you on seen since December

I guess I was just too lazy to hit “send”

[losingyourshitoverboys]

Your feelings for me

As cold as our food

Drive longer so at least we can have a view

[losingyourshitoverboys]

N. I. St.

Emotional purge

Ignored for two days

“Hey how are things?”

Ignore you forever 

[losingyourshitoverboys]

A Modern Love Story

Disappearing from my life 

but not

my Instagram stories 

[losingyourshitoverboys]

Receipts

A series of screenshots 

lives in my recents

Your texts

buried deep within threads

[losingyourshitoverboys]

Ideation

Wondering when a ticking bomb will go off

with every fuse lit

[losingyourshitoverboys]

A Small Mattress

corner of the room a ceiling not tall enough sheets untucked misguided intentions

will this be enough?
