ex

was stupidity and desire
locked in a mad embrace

snowflakes horizontal
like we dreamed of being
all the time

and wouldn't it be nice
we thought, if we were older
because oh
yes
that wait is so so long.

i remember romance then
was fire and brimstone
sin and septic shock

drunken stupor at a college
in ohio where nothing made sense
and all that's left if the smell of shit

and wouldn't it be nice
we thought, if we were older
because oh
yes
then i could forget

i remember romance then
was kisses under autumn leaves
near a dark stream

secrets and shallow dreams
in a lazy nowhere town where everything made sense
and all that's left of us is buried

thank god.
