Not Another Love Poem:

You are the sun to my moon

Nothing shines brighter than you

In daylight, I’m enraptured by your gaze

My life shines brightest when I hang onto your days

My mind reflects the pool of your love

And I turn your silence into drums

Playing a melody like the heartbeat by your lungs

Rhyming words that come from a gifted tongue

Break apart my innocence

Paint it green like Ricinus

Tape it back together

Like a cycle repeating forever

Cause I never learned my lessons

And I’m destined for depression

But I’m on the precipice of letting go of getting into heaven

So I’ll see you in the ether

And play the instrument of a reaper

Against hollowed bones

And I bite my tongue, but it hits home

That I’ll never break this fever
