Doomed
Were we doomed
Destined to fall apart
Before even coming together
Disintegrating promises
Forever was just a lie
Now I walk this desert alone
Pacing like a ghost
Your memory
Floats through my mind
Invisible smoke
You fill my lungs
Ushering in an early death
As the warm winds blow
Scattering my hopes over the grasslands
Marfa gets my pain
She helps me translate it
My art
Some days it’s just surviving
Driving on
The heat baking me like clay
Forged and formed
Forewarned
To stay away from the memories
Like weapons
