Description
i have so many things that i want to saythat i'm dizzy with it.
it swims in my head
and in the spaces between my ribs.
and i know that i'm not magnificent
but i can tell you that i'm like the stars;
the streetlamps dulling out their luminescence
so you only see them
burning faintly alongside the moon
i can tell you
that the already-set sun
turns the night sky a dark navy
and that if i try hard enough
i can turn it into the depths of the ocean
and exhale for good
and i know that i'm not magnificent
but i know you're in milwaukee,
just a silhouette to a passerby in the street
through an open window--
hold the sweet,
because all i taste
is bitter.
[ and i could see for miles. ]

I feel like I should drop this here for you to peek at.
It was also inspired by that song, the music video, specifically.
Strange how people interpret differently. But anyways, I love the song. C:

I appreciate it! Thank you. It's a beautiful song. It leaves me almost aching.
Hm. I wish I had a clear answer for you, darling.
I think I'm sad for a lot of reasons. Some I can't even describe, myself.
It's a bit more difficult than I'd like to acknowledge, you see.

It's nice to find people who get music.
A lot of people just listen--which is a good thing, too.
But sometimes it's nice to find people who feel it.
I appreciate it, sweetheart.
Thank you c':
