the only option seems to be growth in a new direction

 

rehab garden

 

oracle

 

this wedding will be so easy

 

some religion

 

I finally get / what came / from that whole wreck

 

when asked about how your chest felt

 

longing theorem

 

past / present / future

 

you are my orbital flower

 

some things end / naturally and naturally / some things end

 

ghost muse
