Cross It Out

Cross it out.

No.

Why not?

I think it’s good, don’t cross it out, please?

We’ll see…

 

 

What are you doing?

Sometimes I wonder so frequently,

But then again,

I forget you’ve been out for a while,

You have both eyes closed,

Where are we?

We’re on a beach,

Where the sun glares at us as if to say, ‘Children lost are children guided by the light’,

You remind me of a robot,

Or a dictionary,

Or something in between,

Your words speak so valiantly,

But you hold me at a standard so high,

Best regards to you,

In all your blossoming glory,

To you, I am gold, but to me, what am I but a coal miner?

 

Tsk tsk,

You dare hold yourself to be at such a low level?

When nothing but gold comes forth your mouth?

Tis naught but a minor flaw in your illusion,

I cherish thee,

Nothing but the sound of your memory,

Nothing but ashes on the ground every time I think, and I think so dangerously,

Please be careful now; gloves on both your hands before you touch me

 

Oh, god,

Here we go again,

Talking in riddles until your tongue gets tied up in knots,

And you can’t seem to find the right words anymore,

Time,

What is time, you say,

Always wondering until you’ve walked far away,

Maybe next time she’ll tell you, it’s not that important anyways,

Ah!

Prized possessions’ always have caught me off-guard,

It was in your nature, wasn’t it?

To always get me all so curious,

It was your gift,

Lifted me from the sadness I was in,

No one could’ve done that but you,

No one I would’ve wanted to anyways,

You’ve wanted me,

Now and forevermore,

I know,

You’ve told me,

I know,

You say such things,

I’m on a string and it feels as if I’m tipping,

But I’m tipping with you
