Adrift

I am an educated fool

tearing myself in two

for me 

and you

and you

and you too

from Monday to Friday

consider this.

it is exhausting

to make you think

my thoughts as

the heat dissolves our brains

and dignity

because you are

where you hate to be

and i am where

i should have never been.

(maybe)

that love is gone 

but i can feel it 

when my mind touches

your invisible heart

pushing you

to distant wor(l)ds of fire.

How far can i push you after noon?

how far can you go without me?

I am an educated fool

playing by the rules

that split myself in two

but who will help me

and save you,

you,

and you too
