Do you hear
the well bell ringing?
It's time to fall
in line and out
of love with your lofty dreams.
So tell me,
do you feel different or special
like they promised
after four short years
despite the nights
spent crying till the sunrise
at your desk,
surrounded
by our loneliness?
Spill to me
all of your regrets
so I can
feel validated.
Take a seat here
beside me
on the railway
and we will wait.
You and me,
my intangible company,
waiting for tomorrow
and a train back home.

Three Words

Three words
exchanged on the phone today.
First time in a while.
And there was no voice on the other end,
raspy from the cigarettes
I wish you wouldn't smoke,
but who am I to stop you?
The one in the background.
Why did I
allow this to drift away
across the lines of these states
and city scapes
dotted with colored lights
that neither of us want to like?
Oh, I don't make the trek up north
'cause I've never got the cash I'm wasting
flipping through photos
and memories of you,
the one in the background.
I'm taking my place
I've always known with us,
though you may disagree,
and as much as I hate to say it,
I want you to carry on
without me.
