Rather, I trust my life
to the lyrics of Lou Reed.
I trust my love
to the notion of forever,
but not how most mean it.
When I met the love of my life,
I knew it like lightning,
and I also knew, that like lightning,
it was doomed.
Immediacy is a drug rush,
dangerous with the tenor of the times.
The primitives of fleeting feelings
are loud in the lessons
learned by not investing in later,
but only giving your gold to now.
Walking around this world,
you can't trust the future.
I don't trust me.
Rather, I rely on big hours
in a small kitchen.
The souvenirs of two people
with different blood,
but the same compass.
