Speak (4/2017)

I drive west when I don’t know what to do.
I fall in love and I don’t know why.
Our feet heading east cause the weather won’t change.
You’re by my side,
toes on the dash.
Decembers together.

Now I’m thinking.
I’m not talking.
I stop thinking
when I’m talking.
Can’t stop thinking.

I’m up, I’m down.
I’m up, I’m down.
I said too much.
You’re not around.

You do best when I don’t know what to do.
I lose control and I don’t know why.
I’m the only one I’ve talked to for two days.
It’s all outside.
Frames on the wall.
Remember together.

Speak to me so I won’t think.
