baby boy, tell me
that you love me,
tell me that you
miss me, tell me
that you're sorry;

tell me that it's okay
to be angry

      my limbs will spread apart
      like pangaea, forming new
      continents (my sons will be
      kings and my daughters will
      be queens and the rest of the
      world will feel ever so honored
      to breathe the same air that
      they do.)

                    i want to rewind time, give
                    me a second chance, maybe i'll
                    kiss you

                    i'm going to hold you closer
                     
                    [tighter]

                    the way i promised you a year
                    later; that medicine won't heal
                    you the same way that i do, you
                    won't be the same if you just
                    g o

can you feel
my heart ex

can you feel my
heart

                                                        i don't know what i'm
                                                        doing, you don't know
                                                        what i've done, unzip
                                                        your jacket, i'll
                                                        unzip my boots,

                                                        i'll draw a plan and
                                                        a map, we're gonna get
                                                        out of suburbia, we're
                                                        gonna head on the road
                                                        one day, before my bones
                                                        decay
96/140 poems completed.

inspired by a number of songs by daughter, who i thank AmethystVixen for introducing me to :heart: :heart: :heart:
listen to her oml

i have a million stories to explain, & i still don't know if i can do that in like 15 minutes or not so i'm gonna wait for youtube to properly work before telling you everything happening in my life.
but i'll just say that school is actually going well! :D

we have this new class (which i am taking :eager:) that's called creative writing. & the whole point is you can write whatever you want.

if the teacher says something like "write a story about being outside of the united states", & you think about sneakers, you can write it. your ideas are valid.

i love this class so much, & i love my teachers! most of them are funny xD

anyways, i'll tell you guys more if you ask, & i hope you liked the poem!! :heart:

What's your favorite song so far from Daughter?
"Youth" is mine by far, but I like "Landfill", "Still", and "Human" a lot, too.
Her lyrics are just beautiful. :heart:
