Rinse & Repeat
Cold water
Washes out stains
And awakens
The mind
When we try
To sleep
But wash out
Her
Thoughts
And memories
Hot or cold
Sometimes
You just can't
Rinse
And
Repeat
Dress up
Dress down
Leave town
Because in
The end
Water
Only sets
Stains
And
Solidifies
Memories
And
Doesn't
Release
Them
Loft Parties
Expensive purchases
Short sales
A loft
In my possesion
Square footage
For
Bookshelves
Art
To be
Hung
Wine
Racks
To admire
Soundless
Division
Among
Open space
To create
Open ideas
Loft parties
Gather
Galleries
Of women
Clothed
In dresses
Fancy tastes
Or distastes
Of others
Drinks
Mixed
Strong
And
Champagne
In
Plastic
Cups
Because
Classy
And hipster
Intermix
Party all
Night
Into the
Wee hours
But
Still up to
Appreciate
Sunrises
The
Summer solstice
They say
Time
To
Live
It
Up
Just
Once
More
In lofts
Wishing
To be
Old
But
Living
To be
Young
Shared Covers
Guess when you
Get too
Tired
Your
Mind
And
Thoughts
Mix up
Emotions
And when
Warm
Shoulders
Suffice
Even
In the
Darkest
of
Nights
And earliest
of mornings
The
Conversations
Somehow
Mean
More
When
Covers
Are
Shared
The Air Up There
First class cabins
Resurrected
Thoughts
Ideas
Marinated
Over
Stewardesses
And their
Drinks with
Ice
To numb
The pain
Handshakes
Greeted
With business
Cards
Elevator
Pitches
And booze
Glassware
No pretzels
Full time
Service
High up
Enough
To get
High
Unconscious
Thoughts
Of her
While
Changing
Altitudes
View points
And
Business ideas
But
We grow
Up in
The air
For it's
Different
Up here
Because
Life
Starts at
Take off
and
Ends
When
You
Land
Separation Hurts
At the
End of
Nights
Beginnings
of Mornings
It's
What's
Expected
Relationship
Wise
I mean
Checkins
Facebook
Posts
Parole
Officers
I'd trust
Her
But not
myself
iPhones
Ankle bracelets
Cold
Sheets
soft hearts
and
Half empty
Beds
Corruption
Without
Money
Yet love
Built across
Bridges
States
Countries
The feelings
Alike
Lost
In translation
In my head
My soul
Questions
My opinions
My toughest
Critic
Opposed
To my
Own
Self worth
If not to
Share
Shackled
Though by
Distance
Separation
Hurts
Built For You
There's
Not enough
Love
Not enough
Sleep
Tonight
For
Dreams
Rest
In silence
While I
Rest
Awake
Waiting
For
Morning dew
To call
You
Cause
All that I've
Dreamed
Doesn't
Count
For eyes
Closed require
An
Imagination
Without
Seeing you
And to
See
Without
Sight
Is to hear
Without
Sound
Yet to
Love with
The only heart
Built
For
Anything
Built for
You
Is the
Only thing
I was
Born
To do
Birthdays Too Soon
A few weeks
Early
She says
Nonchalantly
A few shots
Deep
He says
Nonchalantly
And with
Birthdays
that come
Once a
Year
We make
the Best
Of Worst
Situations
Regardless
Of who
Buys
The Shots
But dates
Stick
Just like
Birth rights
And middle names
Even
After the
Time passes
Clocks tick
and Suns set
For whatever reason
Birthdays
Too Soon
Are better
Celebrated
Than
Birthdays
on
Actual
Birth days
