It used to be my favorite set of cartoons
Magila gorilla for sale and it’s bliss
Now it’s a cycle, throwing myself into things, away from you but when I look up we’re back to this
I love you intensely
You love me immensely
But we reside in different volumes of the same anthology
Time multiplied by distance equals what seems too far
But I feel you as if we were the same person
Won’t you call my name the way you do?
Tell me you love me
I know you love me
I want you to love me
How come you don’t love me?
Wait...
I know you love me
Just remind me you love me
I need you to love me
I’m missing you
Missing here without you
I mean I’m still me but where are you?
There is a piece that I found
I sought you out and discovered and cherished you
I began to hoard you
I smothered you
I needed you
I was lost and then I lost you
And now as I swing back to myself I’m hoping that you’re not busy watching Eddie Murphy, I’m praying you’ll sway back around to me
To see that I’ve grown
I’ve learned to love with open arms and not a clenched grip
I’ve learned to let the love leap from my sleeve, and rebound from my lips
So one more time, can I layup under you?
Wrap my arm around you
Come here?
... come here...
