Ode - We Never Learned To Live

You’re changing face

Decide to occupy the parallels

Hiding concave within

Watching you carry your head

But I can’t respond too easily

Take what you need for the taste

And say before it’s too late

Fake when you need an erased distress call

Taking notes on what you were meant to say

Are you happier now?

Taking the time to reunderstand

Clutching at silence in reverse

Honesty making me sway toward the shore

And feel so unsure

Two minds drew close

Undone

Know the light will be unchanged
