Broken Prose

Anxiety. Calamity.
Baby's Breath and Chai Tea.
Broken amethyst.
Creepy little noises.
Bubblegum and lost love.
Tranquility. Serenity.
Chances never taken.
I miss a place I hate.
Pho and switchboards.
I don't remember your voice.
Forged steel and iron grades.
I can't forget your face.
Broken promises.
Where cement and water collide.
Corn fields.
Tobacco rows.
Break it again.
The end of the road.
"You dropped it in the drink"
I wasn't born in a Mustang.
I miss what we never had.
I wasn't even born in a car.
I'll never go back.
One deep breath.
Calloused heart.
Break the wall.
I can't slow dance when I'm drunk.
