‘silver coins’
And if I hadn’t walked through the frame?
Where would I be?
But I did
and if I didn’t?
It wouldn’t matter
Silver coins in my pockets I climbed the stairs
On all fours, your room was small and your voice timid
That was months ago
I’m so lovesick
Now I lie in my stiff bed, the air is frigid
What is my limit for despair?
Sifting through troubled waves of racing brain shivers
I grabbed the cold keys and heard the silver coins clacking
They’re bigger than ever

into the
pale sand
A sickly green blunt shoved into my hand
Burning buds stain the air
the moon and her melodies sing down on me
Still

The water is cool, the water is cold
Night creeped in from around the corner
It fell so hard and my side is hurting
Waves are jumping, silver coins are wet now
I believed that life was alright
Then the water washed away my blunt
