"You think you're rid of me?"
Said the persistent disease
holding on for dear life
The cough ain't really strep
misdiagnosed progress
Clearing your throat
while there's a grip on mine
"If I'm ailed, you're ailed- If I'm dying you'll feel it"
Cancerous devotion
Deep in your bones
"I give to you my remains
hold on to for safekeeping"

Back From There

Dear Jen,
I've been drinking because I'm trying to forget the hours we spent kissing outside that diner in Williamsburg. I'll let you know when I get back from there. I sent a note but you don't write back. I've got a list of things on my desk to do for today. But I spent all my time regretting words I never said. I'll let you know when I get back from there. I sent a note but you don't write back. I should just move on. It's been enough time. So why is the past still on my mind? I'll let you know when I get back from there. I'll let you know but I'm happy there.

I'll walk to Bergen street on 5th
but all the magic seems to be gone
memorable experiences triggered on every corner
bittersweet to all the people who've moved on
so what have we lost?
What are we doing here?
Why do we stay here?
Why don't we go?
The rent is crippling our priorities
the drinks are rationalizing exit strategies
Do I still have a sense of community?
When everything outside seems to be an opportunity
- what do we keep?
