i’ve been everywhere.

"here is truth,"
you said,
"and here is beauty,
and we are neither
and nothing in between,"
so you boarded up your eyes
like hollow burnt-out houses
and you ran.

days like this,
more than air,
i need someonesomethingsomewhere
to hold my clumsy hands,
feed me comfort,
and say,
listen.
tomorrow is the easiest
of all the days,
because it never really comes;
and i can’t forget the way today came,
hard and fast, one more
in a long line
of inconsiderate lover days,
lying in my unmade bed,
waiting
for me to regret.
