the grassy knoll

Communicating with other

Humans

Is far more taxing and

Complex

Than just sputtering out feelings

It is impossible

To put into words

All I wish to express to you

About you

For you

I guess I’m overwhelmed

You once described me as occasionally overwhelming

I know you were being nice

It’s impossible

To be this overwhelmed

And not be constantly

Overwhelming

I am content

To just sit quietly with you

Peaceable

Is literally

Your vibe

I wish I could

Steal it

Maybe I am copying you

I’m calmest when

You’re around

Even though half my

Anxiety when you aren’t

Comes

From worrying over

You

Maybe we really do fall in love

The way we fall asleep

Slowly

And then flat on our faces

Embarrassing ourselves in front of

God and everyone
