Sorting Through Silence

I still miss him

How can I still miss him

Stop yearning stop longing stop it this instant

How am I supposed to sort through an entire year of silence?

Sifting through clear nothing like trying to catch the moonbeam in your hand

By the way

Hold your hands under water under the moon

Duh.

How do you catch a cloud and pin it down?

Put a God damn dome over it.

Duh.

Sifting through it.

It just throws up other things

Mexico

Touring all summer

Byeeee

I still love her

I still miss him

Even though he still loves her

I hear my thoughts ringing in the silence

The farther away you are the closer you feel

Even loneliness changes to strength when I think of you

I miss

That feeling

I miss

I wonder where you are and what you are doing now, if you are here underneath this far reaching sky.

I miss him

Because I miss how I used to see him

And I’m so tired of lines

And between

And signs

And one more day

And tomorrow might be good for something

The moment you almost make a coworker cry because

You know

And you didn’t mean to but you wanted to know

Him

Once I heard someone had told someone else that I’m unique.

Special.

That there’s something

About me

But this silence

In this place where I’ve been stood for a year

Tells a different story

And the rain begins to fall

And Hermes says it all

Because I brought up war again

Because it’s war.

Just not here.

Just not yet.

And the canons go
