Every Sound Lost in the Ground

i look back at your eyes

paint another picture

break down the walls

color their insides

memories pushed like a swing set

when we fell hard into the sand

sun so bright I don’t understand

photographs stripped with imagination

men hunt through your dreams

drop the arrow but don’t forget to fight

hit the target but don’t die in violence

every sound lost in the ground

find the conversation before we went wrong

write your name through the pavement

every color hurts the same

every mirrored edge closing me up from the inside

half an idea hurts like a time bomb

faces shake my disguise

a reflection half-erased

tumble into the ground sift through the stars

confusion shakes me beyond comprehension

drift toward the silent rooms

run towards the forecast

every angle opening tomorrow

fingers stained with turmoil

wounds uneven shaking far from control
