Closet

I stay here in this closet Thinking of sunflowers and roads I could have taken Thinking of guitars, and water splashes, and loneliness and all the ways to reach an old self Thinking of Mars, and stardust, puppies and love, ghosts and future plots Thinking of mornings, and hate, and fall, and playgrounds with nocturnal […]
