don’t love an artist

they'll paint you in the stars

that people glorify and explore

distant lanterns that will drift away

to places unseen to the naked eye

they'll write words that will make you feel old

use old language that you will not know

because they'll say your an interface to time

because time seems to fly when they're with you

they'll sing songs in your name for all to hear

their gorgeous voice crying out your name

through sweat and tears and content moans

never letting you go

never letting you go.
