(this is the poem i wrote for the thing at school and it’s probably not very good but my friend wants to see it)

 i’ll pick up where you left off

inhale, taste the sound of your silence

you are better than black ciagarettes

it didn’t matter that the bread we were baking had risen

or that i’d been too weak to start conversation

in our heavy heads, we found meditation

-

i could have told you 

how i loved your tangled, at-home hair

adored your chapped lips

found god in each face you made when you had no one to impress

you see, i like droopy eyes

tired, worried, waxing and waning

i like slack jaws

holding small movements of breath

i like unabashed ugliness

i like silence without consequence

-

if i had opened my mouth, i would have told you everything

but i’ve had to find beauty in the not-telling,

since my sloppy way with words was always a spark compared to the wildfire of our serenity

my body language speaks more concisely than my unorganized speech fragments

i’m constantly editing and rewriting

you inhale, and i pray you taste my thoughts
