An ode to a rival and a savior.
I want to write with you

We are restless
I cannot and will not sleep
You get to watch me
lose control
in slow motion
Over and over again
sitting still

And I need you to write about me

I want to dance around you
In meter
singing prose in harmony
making shitty abstract art
in our apartment
Breathing in the rhymes of
your favorite poets
I breathe in your verses
and love myself for it

I hate myself
For every time you hate yourself

I put down my pen
I finally save you

Live with me
and help me
Thresh me out
Think about your favorite music
Think about everything good
take out the bad parts
Write about it, I'll write to you

And I need to write about you

I want you to write with me
