when it breaks
the film begins to gather on the floor
til the projector shorts out this can go on forever
playing films of me back when i was just a kid
the moment came where the film began to break
about the time that i “grew” up and thought i knew which what was what when everything that i knew turned to shit but it was not.
take a pill when the time feels right; right now honey, i know that things are bad for you but they can get better.
it’s what all my friends say
it’s what i hear that fucking kills me.
i guess that it’s always time to grow up.
growing up and out.
don’t stand me down now, i need this more than ever.
can’t i please stay in this moment forever.
i can feel our hands touch.
i can feel something for once.
can’t i please stay in this moment forever
(my face behind my eyes and the face behind my hands are one in the same and the world can be good forever if they stay there.)
