Maya Hanson Poems

He asked me if I'd write for him
and after moments I said
Most of my thoughts don't even
make it out of my head
...

I can't, I want to know you
before the next sunrise
But I'm a million miles away
and I can't pretend to realize
...

Messing with destiny, time standing still
Delirious with laughter and the next thing you know
we've both done things we shouldn't have
...

I hate how in the past week
there's been too many versions of us

Admit one, tie a knot
...

Have you ever felt like
freeing us through the forest
Falling off the sidelines as we go
...

If you want art
give me a mess,
give me a tangle of lives
...

We are
walk
run
sprint
...

I never paid much attention
to your name,
a silhouette in the background,
until suddenly we're in the same sea
...

It's not that I can't decide
who you are,
though I can't.
It's that I can't decide
...
