Body

I can’t wait to let my beard grow past my knees
See my kids kids kids grow taller than these trees
Yeah I can’t wait until I can barely see
The screens that overshadow real meaning
Yeah, I can’t wait until I’m older
Old as fuck
I can’t wait to see what love feels like this long
I stare at the stars and know they change
Like me
Undying roots of what life really means
And oh the many men who I’ve seen come and gone
Before and beyond my time
And oh the life I lead
This Body is here
for now
Go ahead
To you I
I can’t wait til it’s overcast and grey
Watch you shave your head
And regret it the next day
Shop for hours in Soho just to go buy thrift
Save for our houses
Overcast in bliss
And oh the many men who I’ve seen come and gone
Malign and misaligned
And oh the life I lead
This body is here
for now
Go ahead
to you I
Go ahead
To you I
I’m paper thin
You fill me in
Through overwhelm and beauty
As I am
Vow to fall
Give my all
