Front Row |
| (I know he’s blood but you can still turn him away |
| you don’t owe him anything) |
| do you go to the dungeon |
| to find out how to make peace with your days in the dungeon |
| writing a letter to you |
| didn’t make me feel any more peaceful than how I felt when we weren’t |
| speaking |
| because I didn’t cop to what I did. |
| I can’t love you becaused we’re supposed to have professional |
| boundaries. |
| I’d like you to be schooled and in awe as though you were kissed by god full on the lips. |
| I’m in the front row the front row with popcorn |
| I get to see you see you close up |
| (I'm too tired to recount the unpleasantries one by one |
| one minute I want to banish you |
| the next I want to be on a deserted island with you with my three |
| favorite cd’s |
| ambivalent in your bed we’ve yet to acknowledge what really happened) |
| Slid into the ditch I have this overwhelming loss of amibition |
| we said let’s name thirty good reasons why we shouldn’t be together |
| I started by saying things like you smoke you live in new jersey |
| (too far) |
| you started saying things like you belong to the world |
| all of which could have been easily refuted |
| but the conversation was hypothetical |
| I am totally short of breath for you |
| why can’t you shut your stuff off… |
| I’m in the front row the front row with popcorn |
| I get to see you see you close up and I laughed until my lungs hurt |
| I love how you bust my chops |
| You don’t always feel seen |
| Sometimes you feel erasable unfortunately I cannot reciprocate in my current state |
| I think we should be careful of how much time we spend together |
| …for a while while i’m speaking |
| you know how much you hate to be interrupted maybe spend some time |
| alone |
| fill up your proverbial cup so that it doesn’t always about you |
| I’ve been wanting your undivided attention I like the fact that you’re |
| nothing like me Are you not burdened by the lack of perspective people have of your |
| charmed life (seemingly)? |
| I’m in the front row the front row with popcorn |
| I get to see you see you close up you never meant to be ungrateful |
| nor held up to be whipped or wept |
| for certainly not analysed |
| prodded at more ways than one apparently you’ve been misrepresented |
| dealing with the concept of arrows being slung towards your outrageous |
| fortune |
| Hey I’m not mad at you guardian |
| I’m mad at myself for spending so much time with you and your jeckyl |
| and hydeness |
| i’m glad i firguratively slapped you on the wrist |
| you laughed a wicked laugh and said come here let me clip your |
| wings! |
| (I know he’s blood but you can still turn him away you don’t own him |
| anything) |
| raise the roof he yelled yeah raise the roof! |
| I yelled back. |
| (Unfortunately you needed a health scare to reprioritize.) |
| No thanks to the soap box |
| Having my rile against them won’t make an ounce of difference… |
| I’m in the front row the front row with popcorn |
| I get to see you see you close up Oh the things I’ve done for you |
| many a sitch a friend a man’s been left for you |
| oh the books i’ve read for you |
| the tongues i’ve bitten for you many a new city for you |
| for you many a risk taken for you (not a single regret) |
