Healthier Thoughts

i wanna stop drinking
i wanna stop sleeping in
i want healthier thoughts
***
i trace the course of my whole life
contemplate what’s eating me inside
i want healthier thoughts
feed what’s keeping me alive
sick of betraying my own mind
i want healthier thoughts
tired of losing whole nights
memories replaced by a dark light
i want healthier thoughts
***
i wanna stop drinking
i wanna stop sleeping in
i want healthier thoughts
***
i wish i could resist
my desire to sneakily slip
into dark, destructive thoughts
some shame fades over time
but most of it still resides
in my guilty, fucked up thoughts
crave country homes and dawns of day
finding the strength to change my ways
away from self-defeating thoughts
***
i wanna stop drinking
i wanna stop sleeping in
i want healthier thoughts

Wives

i am living near modern american wives
and they are concerned with how i’m living my life
how idealistic can i be
to only want nature for its rivers and trees
without all of the ugly things
like rotting fruit and tsunamis
like wanting myself to live without
catastrophic thinking and jealousy
i am living near modern american wives
they share their stories on back porches with bottles of wine
join the ranks of women
with an abundance of love to give
their radiance left lacking
a healthy recipient
so celestial mothers,
ethereal brothers,
genderqueer empaths
hold space for each other
i am living near modern american wives
and they are concerned with how i’m living my life
so i look to the cards, i look to the stars
cast spells in my room, sit and talk to you
maybe like the buffalo
maybe like this song you wrote
it rambles, she roams
the lone wolf is coming home
i am living near modern american wives
they share their stories on back porches with bottles of wine
i am living near modern american wives
and they are concerned with how i’m living my life
i am living near modern american wives
and they’re the reason why i’m still alive

Plants

the plants are dying
sent a text i know i’ll regret
their leaves are drying
i can’t wait to see you again
why aren’t you replying?
it’s been two weeks since they’ve been fed
both so good at lying
facing them all and playing pretend
i’ve killed so many times
who’s to say it won’t happen again
we’ve crossed so many lines
can we go back to just being friends?
dig new life from the earth
and selfishly repurpose
this plant in my room
on my shelf, its new tomb
my green vanity pet
it doesn’t deserve this
i can breathe without it
but it makes me feel connected
to something below me, above me, around me
where’s the sun been hiding lately?
i used to dance with the moon nightly
it seems they’ve both given up on me
guess i’ll surrender and go back to sleep

if i could i’d dance ballet on stage
i’d pirouette your breath away
but i only dance alone in my room
one day i’ll build up the nerve
to do it around you
if i could i’d paint a scenery
with hills and flowers
lakes and evergreens
i’d transport you there
right next to me
but the truth is i’ve never
been quite good at those things
and i love it when you’re high
in that sweatshirt in our bedroom in the winter time
reading about our signs
i’m such a 4 and you’re such a 9
one day we’ll move to sicily
the cacti and wine
the rainbows and poppies
the country witches singing for the crops
swimming in the ocean
waiting for mt etna to erupt
maybe we’ll go back to germany
drink beers in the park hang with good dogs all day
but the truth is our home
is my favorite place
to spend my nights with you and bowie
and i love it when you’re high,
in that sweatshirt in my bedroom in the winter time
reading about our signs
i’m such a 4 and you’re such a 9
domesticate me
feed my soul and hug my body
domesticate me
i’ve never wanted to stay home so badly
