reminders

may 1, 2025 / New York, New York

and then my nails grew
and i realized the length
you've been away
each like a sunrise
barring my eyes
from the street's bedside
but if i try
i swear that i can hear your rhodes roads

whispering sweetly
reaching to meet me
i'd breath you deeply
and try to hold it in

each day's a little longer
i'm a distorted mirror without you

i'd honor the doorway
honor the asphalt
honor the weight of the air
if you were whispering sweetly
reaching to meet me
i'd breathe you deeply
and try to hold it in
