Predictable Texts

Good-bye,
I know we didn't know each other long,
But I don't want to be forthcoming,
In my sordid departure,
Sure its full of hateful words,
And spiteful tears,
But somewhere deep inside,
There's a lollipop gum drop,
Floating on a marshmallow cloud,
Underneath a cotton candy sun,
And although we both know,
None of it is really so,
We will try and say hello,
One day, again,
We will find a place that just makes sense,
Where the mundane is great, and we are okay with being content,
Let's go ahead and wait for that,
Of sitting in silence,
I'll do the crossword puzzles,
While you play scrabble with your alphabet soup,
And when we're bored,
We will talk in rhymes,
And digest riddles,
And in decomposition underneath the dirt,
We will wish we had been put in different plots,
We would argue over headstones,
And the misspelling of our last names,
And even in hellfire,
We would only find irritation in our simplicities,
Complexity to be honest is what we both need,
A world that no one else deems possible,
But the dreams of dreamers are seldom ever the same,
So Good-bye,
Little fox,
Hiding under the floor boards,
You were clever back then,
But not cleaver today,
Tomorrow maybe,
But yesterday has passed,
Let's rehearse our lies,
And put on a show,
Which every one will know,
Is a show full of lies,
About yesterday,
And today,
And nothing like our real tomorrow.
So go on,
Call it all peaches and creams,
Eat your yogurt dip,
And take it all in,
You'll see the monkey with a banana inserted firmly,
In it's red monkey ass,
And you'll curse the sky,
Until you find better words to be comforted by,
Then all this shits out the window,
And someone elses top ten records,
Will occupy your playlist,
And you'll shuffle it,
And put it on repeat,
Each song and then everything,
Again and again,
And when its spun out of control,
It'll fly across the room,
And shatter on the bathroom mirror,
So watch your step,
And mind your manners,
Your mothers stopping by.
