A Map of You

phone conversations just because.
somedays i think i get you.
i think i understand.
diamonds in the dirt.
lips and liquor.
these things we forget to see.
these things we forget to talk about.
those things we used to be,
but spread thin along roads
traveled and traversed
over these past few years.
sometimes i forget,
years are a pretty big deal.
and moreso, years ago.
your highways like veins.
alpha in my blood.
phone conversations just because.
somedays i think i get you.
and your distance.

and i'm not saying i'm not happy....

....but when things are bad, at least you're feeling something. because content is just another word for dispassionate. and passion speaks louder than smiles and favors and gifts. i'd rather be something more than what people see. i want them to know who i am. they really have no idea. maybe i don't either.
