if you do it at night
Will you drown in the ocean
if you try to drink instead of breathe
If you bury a secret
by the willow
do the roots tell the leaves
Can I outrun my shadow
if I run toward the dark
If the moon fell into the water
would the ocean become the sky
If you break a promise
to yourself
but never say it out loud
did it ever count
If I am afraid of losing you
does that mean I have you
or has it already happened
If your hand still fits in mine
is that evidence of anything
If I can imagine a life without you
does that mean I don't want one with you
Is the restlessness in my bones
a sign that perhaps maybe
I am not actually the cool girl
Did I develop standards
and am I even allowed to
Is it selfish to raise a bar
that you already lifted up from hell
Is it settling if this
is leaps and bounds better
than anything I’ve ever known
Baby can you water the grass
I wanna stay in our yard
Is it ours
Did we let it die
When did the fence start falling apart
and is it because you’re sitting on it
or am I
