Pretty, Gay by Maryam Johnson //
All We Are by Colton Bybee //
Is that all we are?
Just a mixed combustion of air
Making decisions on the next rich fill
Looking for love
Looking for love
I think I found it,
it was at the bottom of the bottle
It was lost the morning after
It was in the black spaces that we created
It was left within the families of the lives lost
Is that all we are?
Moving through blurred mixed motions
Emotions left tainted by raw intentions
Looking for love
Looking for love
I think I found it
It was in a stranger's bed
It was lost the dark of the night
It was presented as a joke
It was left dangling on the tip of my tongue
Is that all we are?
Just an impressive mess undressed
Stale from being left open for too long
Looking for love
Looking for love
I think I found it
It was on the corner waiting
It was lost when you tried to find it
It was right in front of your face
It was left knocking on your door
