This Gray, Unfortunate Place (2)

23 - Small Townees

And to think 

that there still seasons

where I 

keep up with 

what you posted.

I don't know 

when I'll stop this,

but I can't help but

see a Townhouse 

in New York

every time 

I close my eyes,

and I see 

that we could be 

a family.

Not like the rest,

we'd confess

as you'd dress up

and I'd hold you closer.

You'd tell me a fable

I'd love that your name

is just two syllables.

Would you wanna 

leave this state

for somethin' greater?

I can't help but think 

this town is too small

and everyone's hatin'. 

Someone, please,

tell me if it's 

a trope for the small-townees

to never let things

go- They never let it go.
