Simak Poem 6
Kenny Vasoli has always been a lyrical genius to me.(he was the lead singer of my favorite band circa seventh grade) I can't count on one hand the times I used his voice via mixtape to woe a lady friend. This darker side of his fits nicely into my theme of giving up, and getting on with things, but only after one last emotional outburst

“Have a Nice Life"
I received one kiss for the duration of the trip and
it was loveless as if made by lifeless lips. These lips are sealed you bitch, so keep that one locked up because it’s all you’ll get. Your life (in my eyes) isn’t worth my time on the five-hour flight. Have a nice life and thank you so kindly for ruining mine. I hope that you and Daniel are living it up, and I hope you don’t miss me and don’t give a fuck. Because I’m sure with my luck, this will happen again and someone will replace the distaste created by the sound of your name. This could be the last chance I have to elaborate and display the choices I made and the patiently waiting I did for the day when you’d say that “my feelings for you are quickly receding, almost as fast as your heart is beating”. When it stops they will stop, when you drop then I’m off to get on with my life and leave yours with the ghost of the past.
