Daydrinking

I’ve been daydrinking,
daydreaming about you,
I wish it were easy to forget about you,
and your stupid smile,
and the way it would bring out the wrinkles around your eyes,
Oh, your hazel brown eyes.

you told me writing is what made your heart glow,
so why don’t you write?
write about me?
am I not poetry?
but maybe? i know I made you smile,
so why did you lie?
it’s been hard, trying to get you off my mind,
especially after five.

I’ve been daydrinking,
thinking about you, that night,
when you kissed me under the pink moonlight,
an orange sky, we shared a chocolate pie.
you tasted sweet, like candy
a little sour,peachy.
now I find myself reminiscing,
having wine for breakfast at six,
tequila for dinner at two,
i don’t know what else to do.

I’ve been daydrinking,
deranged,you told me it was okay,
that the world isn’t a safe place, you are,
but you’re not here,
not anymore,
you left,you didn’t even say goodbye.
why do I still care?

so now I will have to bury you,
in the cemetery of my thoughts
where many others have gone,
before you,
beacuse right now, you’re just another painful recollection.

I’ve been daydrinking,
holding onto the memories,
i remember how you felt,
congenial,
you made me feel,
homesick,
your arms felt like home,
I was hysterical.
so I had to run
run from you,
I am,
running,
so fast,
parts of you are now starting to dissipate,
through the vacant hallways,
of this broken home.
