and for a while… it was magic for me and my Girl.

infinite options of what to be
a hole in the wall and the murder of innocence.

it was alive when i found it.
i used to love the ocean.
i had a son
he got away from me by true accident
i wanted him to be happy
but life does it’s own thing to people
