Back to Tims's poems




shooting star




no one's returned from where they've gone
they're still out having fun
it's okay that they forgot us
we don't need them or the shit they posses
because i've got you & you've got my love
they were everything we wanted to be
we found ourselves inside of you & me
me & you we're almost the same
you're priceless & i'm just worthless
but i was like you oh so long ago
what happened to the little red headed boy
in the picture on the wall in the hall
my cheap ideas are on sale again
you can get two for the price of none
i burned up & down & now i'm burning out
trickling down to be washed away
my fuzzy mind is out of her place
we fell in love with the pain of love
it's what we love the pain of love
the pain of love like rain from above
