Why
Why can't you feel
the way i feel
the way i blend
the way congeal.
Why can't you break
the way i break
And smile when you see
like when i see your face
Why can't you be
the air i breathe in
the shelter i crave
under your skin.
Why can't you longer
Your ephemeral love
to drench my heart
draw the fire of.
Why can't you be
the crutch of my cripple
the calm of my conscience
my booze, my tipple
Why can't you be the peace
that i have found
When all the voices
talk around.
