i got a cut upon my stomach
it was left there by my cousin
i went to a doctor his name was philip
he spelled it with one 'l'
he grinned and he spoke shortly
in some words i never got
but the gist of all those sentences
on if i'd be okay or not
is that the cut it would scar over
and sometimes it could hurt a lot
but most of the time it'll blend in
to a memory i forgot
i put a filter on my ears
so i could choose what i would hear
to what i want and what i like
so that i could be okay sometimes
he'd sit and sip his beer and spill out hundreds of words
i'd hear just 10 or 15 but none of those would hurt
i got a cut upon my stomach
it was left there by my cousin
i went to a doctor his name was philip
it was the worst pain i'd ever felt

Come Home

i wrote your name in my backyard
hooked on a fence and in the stones
carved initials into bone
just waitin for you to come home
come home come home
theres a bird in the tree
come home come home
the sun wont rise
come home to me
fell on my wooden sword
and im too high up this sycamore
i wont go to bed unless i see you in the morning
comin back to me
come back come back
dragonflies in the net
come back come back
this winter wont end
come back come back to me
this summer is melting my skin
i don't think the world knows how to end
not with you tapping on the glass
comin home to me
come home come home
fireflies on the water
come home come home
i can see every star in the sky
comin down to me
comin home to me

For Now

the sidewalk burns my feet
put warm clothes on me
i'm on the porch drinking
the blackest coffee
out of a tin cup
your hand's skin is rough
i am feeling love
all i am is love

Shel Silverstein

when i read shel silverstein
everything was big
my bed was up 8 miles
and all the trees were giving me to them
i thought the sidewalk ended when mom told me to go inside
the streetlights were more guidance than anything my parents ever said
when i read shel silverstein
every tree was climbable
all the stars are sentient
they felt every word that i had ever said
dont go to bed
when the lightning bugs are out
dont wake up
until the sky is blue
i like it when the sky is blue
the sky is really blue
