Makes Me Want To Write Indie Romance.

Makes me want to write indie romance. ♥️

Sonnet of Unrequited Love

I wonder if you see the stars a lot,

for if you did then you might see my face

in constellations galaxies had brought

to you, a moment seemingly erased.

But what has come from sitting here alone?

The mirrored night does fade into the sky;

I built a castle out of clouds: a throne

you cannot reach for you still cannot fly.

These playground flowers follow solemn chants—

no time to leave childish things behind.

For if I do, a madness comes in rants

of love I never had but hope to find.

So take these crooked palms that hold my heart,

and if they beat in time, we’re counterparts.

Isaac’s Goodbye Song

Wish my head was on your shoulder

Wish I hadn’t sent you packing

When I think of us on late nights

It’s your depth that I am lacking

Wish your name was only whispered

And was not my alma mater

Since shouts of it will not put out

This fire on the water

Wish the world would just stop spinning ‘round

So I’d rocket off this planet

Flying straight into the universe

And find the atoms who began it

Through the sun

The sun

Though I

I need you to not

Not remember my words

Remember my words

Wish I’d sit inside your car now

See those stupid dash-dice jingle

Through the silence of a song you know

As your way to intermingle

Please believe me, don’t remember

I will only bring you trouble

And losing me will someday fade

Like your chin fades into stubble

Hear your voice in other’s music

And I can’t yet close my heart

I’ll write poems ‘til these hands of mine

Can just erase you from my art

Recall the things you did for me

Repaid in solemn goodbyes

I’ll wear all our idiocrasy

So it’s not on you though I

I

I need you to please

Please remember good times

Just remember good times
