3.3.11
It doesn’t change anything
I am still right here
Even if I left tomorrow
I would end up here today
It is not so bad most would say
It doesn’t matter after all
Don’t let it get to you
This is not romantic
This is satanic
Well I exasperate
I exaggerate
I exacerbate
Excoriate - denounce
Excruciate - torment
Execrate - detest
Bitter or sullen
Does this make me feel better
A good long walk helps
Dinner with normal helps
Yellow bells and daffodils
Help
Movement helps
Funny, I smile more now
An after effect of
Only details I imagined
Why tear up over details
You exist out there somewhere
I exist in here somewhere
Mutual acknowledged existence
Love among the ruins*
Of one reminded of promises past
Not too polite to be too exact
If I yell there might be an avalanche
Of emotive motion
Jagged boulder bouncing
Muddy phrasing word slide
Collapsing heart sink hole
At least I am not breaking
Out in song
Performance therapy
See me be happy
