felt bitter and weak
was so relieved that you met me when you did
stressed and troubled with speech
tragically unaware of how it had to be
Sophie's Subaru
down on Xs up on stims that homies gave me
I know that
we could have been friends
but I was so anxious
and truth be told so were you
and neither of us
could be so trusting
of finding balance between
what you expect and
what you hope for
we could have been friends
hiding underneath the surface
a stash of petty lies
rhythmic thunderclaps are coping
our soft mistaken pride
honesty and make believe
gradual phosphorous decays, decays
dripping on my body
my watchful eyes remind me of the grey
was so relieved that you met me when you did
stressed and troubled with speech
tragically unaware of how it had to be
of finding balance between
what you expect and
what you hope for
we could have been friends
