I thought I could tell you all a story
One in black, and black, and white
But something’s slipped out sideways
The world’s not resting right
How can the ground keep spinning
Why is the sky so blue
Why does it seem like God is laughing
Laughing at me, for seeing you
Everything, that you could do
It was laid out in perfect view
Now and forever, one from two

I wanted to tell you all a story
But the letters smeared to gray
The sun came up this morning
And the colors went away
Why is it me that’s mourning
Don’t you feel the silence too
Now that it seems like God is crying
For the world, held between two
And everything that I believed, I wanted to be true
To lay it in eternity, a love in perfect view

I’ve lost my pretty story
All I know now is the end
There’s nothing left that’s sacred
We will throw away our friends
In a spinning silence dying
We miss each other in the dark
And God sighing, laughing, crying
Lets us tear it all apart


I finished my giant IS paper yesterday, and felt like celebrating. Now I don't. I'm just lonely, and tired.

Please don't hate my pretentious poem.
