The Midwest.

The Midwest engulfed us for quite sometime Elijah. 

as I mismatched clothes on purpose and changed in front of you.

The smell of gas stations and empty diners never felt more like home

and I loved the way your name rolled off my tongue like a Shakespeare Sonnet

while we found time to debate science and religion, love and outer space

but at the end of the day you'd get tangled up in me, and I'd lose myself in you

how you held my head when the motion sickness came over me

as each breath of air you took gave me wings to grow, gave me wings to go

So give my regards to Nebraska, for giving me Elijah, for giving me life.

cheers.

Summer:

please, oh please hurry up!

cheers.

The most well known stranger.

The further we are away from what we knew

the more I know you are becoming the most well known stranger

as frustration flows into loss and the loss floats off 

when we stood on the edge of everything and I told you i'd always be there

when we stood side by side and said"no matter the distance"

And I'll only ever know you through these photographs I've found

While words just don't cut it, they're all I have left for this matter 

As you're the most well known stranger, as you were my best friend

I can't help but remember the good times

cheers.
