1

my, my, my, my
searching for
what you left untouched

2

hope you find my letter
not goodbye
just see you later

3

hollow love
fight for something
you’re losing me

4

the world goes on
she stays at the table
dust collecting

5

my existence
a momentary lapse in reason
the DNA of gothic lemons

6

trying to meditate 
on a bed of nails
with my pants pulled down

7

thinking back to
what we had
         or didn’t.

8

rain-soaked shoes
I ask the sky
if I imagined it all

9

wanting to rush
to the good part
before knowing if there is one

10

i’m just a girl
your mom invites over
it’s casual

11

I’d rather be
rained on
with you

12

a movie
i’ve seen before
i didn’t like the ending

13

something in the orange
a back road
leads me to yoU

14

as she pulls out of the drive
I beg the headlights
to turn around . . .

15

together
no weight at all
I pray this never ends

16

Mulberry Street pharmacy
happiness in a bottle
till the end of time

17

neon gravestones whisper
refuse
their temptation

18

drowned in holy water
but still can't
get clean

19

my body 
no longer mine 
not strong enough 

20

saw it unfold 
but didn’t care 
to make a change  

21

can’t keep the promise 
you once made 
until death do us part 

22

lost in the city  
doesn’t even matter 
i’m with you

23

heartbreak hotel 
room for 
one

24

skin like raisins 
fuck the fountain of youth 
growing old with you

25

letting the days go by
let the water
hold me down

26

ive had a wonderful night
it just
wasn't this one

27

took our masks off
to feel free
if you hold on life won't change

28

watching you drown
I’ll go down with you
your needs, my needs

29

you grew old
got married
but I’m right where you left me

30

it’ll turn to June again
before i forget
the bugs bite better

31

if pain is beauty 
I'm a pretty bitch
pills rattle

32

thinking about the last person
I kissed
lonely bedroom

33

bedtime conversation
my ceiling
the receiver

34

swings me around
the wooden porch creaks
a kaleidoscope of colors

35

twinkling night drive
lights dance along
joyful roads

36

mirror affirmations
telling myself 
i AM happy  

37

stuck in angel wings 
never promoted 
to a god 

38

Always zone out in tune 
    Michael Jackson album 
        “Remember the Time”

39

Always loving the R&B songs
    having mom’s 90’s vibe—
Can You Stand The Rain 

40

Dodie’s song “She”

picture on your pinterest
saying girls can kiss girls
weren’t you straight?

red banner of excitement
covering an olive-green fear
confusion feels oddly good

use your voice
tell me what’s wrong
kids in an adult body

There is no other life,
your boyfriend can
eat shit; marry me

ripped me out
of the closet—
unwelcome here

41

The (After) Life of the Party
by Fall Out Boy

your confidence
drenched
in desperation

starved eyes
and a knowing glance
the party gleefully oblivious

42

Lover, You Should've Come Over
by Jeff Buckley

i'd time travel                 
for one last 
kiss on your shoulder

sweet laughter &
shoulder kisses 
and mistakes  

43

Miss Missing You
by Fall Out Boy

cigarette smoke,
rock bands, and insults
(I miss missing you)

44

Let’s Fall in Love for the Night
by FINNEAS

twitchy lips, swaying hips,
and a goal
but only for tonight

45

Spit
by CARR

exchanging spit
a calculated connection
short-lived

46

Fairwell For Now
b y Greta Van Fleet

don't make me 
leave 
post concert depression

47

Right Down The Line
by Gerry Rafferty

for your love 
i’m always 
right down the line

48

Tears of Rain
b y Greta Van Fleet 

b stage 
bathing in the light 
my tears rain
