Momento Memoir

We would stay up late rambling about centaurs

Pen pals wander to a hedge hogs dilema

Wondering where the crowds have hysteria

Blissful ignorance of time; where each jab is a pillow

Bumble bees of marshmallows consume our thoughts

Wondering if these stings are starvation or self taught

The different reaches of impulse

I mean not to sound semantic but quite literal. I feel the observation in ones impulse to be pivotal

Which is why even having you as a friend. would be abysmal

The abyss full nature of sudden contact, yet presentation

Reaches width of contract, so please continue

with previous redactions. I cannot perceive

close minded attention transactions.

you only got the first forty words

A comforting cool-headed goodbye

A selfishness you can't see to despise

Buried in my tragedy is a sparrow with a light

That's the way it should be, a way, you can't fight.

Theres a comfort in the way it was cordial.

Something I saved up to afford you

We'd all want one to adorn too

We all move forward to destiny or doom?
