Where’s your second shoe?
What can you do with just one shoe?
Can you ride your bike?
Can you go to work?
Can you run for miles?
Can you walk the dogs?
Can you dance so smooth?
Can you balance on one leg all day long?

Just a sliver
Not a huge, gigantic piece
Just a tiny sliver
That is all I need

My whole heart is here for you
You don’t need to wonder
It is here for you
In exchange

For a sliver of your heart

He lied to me
She lied to you
You lied to me
I lied to him
You lied to her
I lied to you
You lied to her
I lied to him

He cried to me
She cried to you
You lied to me
I lied to you
You lied to her
She cried to you
You lied to me
I cried to you
You lied to me

How can I explain my love
Forceful, potent love of

You, never shall you know
Adoring stitches I have sewn

Prick of needle, in and out
Blood on linen, marking doubt

Remember on the avenue
With brick-red crayon I outlined you

You so tall and smile so bright
I pining that you might

Mention me as in your dream
Candy vision, crisp, citrine

Yet, I requiring ruby love
Mining insufficient of

If you are seeing this

Know that together

We have crossed the threshold

Into dystopia

The ransom can’t be crowdsourced

We have already paid the price

For the loss of the sensory

Sweet, sweet tonic
Where are you
I want to drink you in
And stumble in your sparkle

Are you champagne
Are you whiskey
Are you absinthe
Are you blood, red, passion poison

Cryptic, profound drink
Potion for my pounding heart
Elixir for my pulsing soul
Where did you go

I need you still
Need you here with me
Need you next to me
Need to taste your words

Stay away
I am nothing but trouble

Be afraid
It is justifiable

I will take and push
Till you’re through, through

Disturbingly dark
I will stain you

Flee fast from my quake
Steady ground is at stake

Nothing but trouble
I am your mistake

There is a girl with blue hair
A tiny, striking girl
With piercing eyes
They call her introvert
She sighs a warning once she speaks
She will reveal all
She quietly knows the meaning
Going on around her

Her contradiction is an art
Art is genius
She is an artist
Her tresses dipped in paint

Long time
Long life
Long love
Long, long love

Child love
Heart love
Kiss and tell
Baby love

Baby love for life, love
Love-child heart
Kiss and love baby
Kiss me now baby

Kiss long and tell
Baby tell my heart
My heart longs
For long love

Do you brightly grin, speaking slickly chosen words
Only that others might buy your amphetamine?
 
Are your motives ever borne of animal need
For the licking of shared wounds?
 
Or are you wily and nimble
Selling your speed until high moon?
 
Do you ever abandon gain, empty your pockets
and go to prowl, smitten with another?
