The Game of Life Feels Lifeless
Feeling drab and grey
The game of life so lifeless
Dreams fade like soft mist

[Untitled]
Feel free to say no
I was wondering if you
Wait, um, nevermind

Floater Friend
Drifting in the mosh
Eyes lock with recognition
I sail again

[Untitled]
The lights are lying
Little glowbugs considering
When to pack up and leave

[Untitled]
Bound by flashing lights  
Your widened eyes drowned in mine 
Nostalgia steeped night

Evening Lights
Dark respite from bright
violent lights to violet skies,
Clouds breeze and I breathe

A Homecoming Rejection
Heart racing, I ask
But your eyes look past me now
A dance lost in dreams.

[Untitled]
How to reach the moon 
Light glints on our eyelashes 
As we dance away

Being Wanted
The pull of your hand
anchoring me to your side
keeps me on sore feet

[Untitled]
The doors are closed
and the ceiling of stars
stares daggers at us
