there are neighbors
some have guns
in time
for when we're out of trying
but still in line
stuck,
spinning slightly.

so take their thoughts
and run with them
take their fights
and finish them
it's okay to be shy
but only some of the time
and it's okay to lie
if it's beside your lover

bail the rest from the well
since each sunset is so lazy
tracing another outline of your faces
fooling no one but you
We see you.

and

only some flowers bloom
so fireflies don't have to learn how to fly
take their fires
and finish them
and most of the time, it's okay to cry
wolf
