Alyx Chérifa Taounza-Jeminet

Wake up, I need to tell you I need you.

That girl is insufferable, always lost asking for you, always hung up on the last bright light.

I thought I'd be cute. Coming to you clueless. I just don't know how to steer the way of the world in a direction that might make you smile.

Dear in the headlight. Honey pie buzzing around your ears. Can't imagine the unwinding.
Please lie down in the moss, breathe in, out. I got a question to ask. Still love me?

Clinging to your exasperation. I can be better, I just forgot how to be good first.
Love me, she whined.

I left a few messages, the kind you can't read because there's so inconspicuous, like cleaning the chocolate of your cheek to tell you there's never gonna be a time I won't be there for you.

Just tell me, when it's not chocolate on your cheek.

Trust a process where you lose every time, before you get what's wrong. Sounds and images overwhelming, I'll shut myself out. I'll always be distracted.

Just give me a pillow to smother my smug. Angels in confined videodrome. Thousands of tapes rolling and I end up kissing you.

I'm the moon to say goodbye to. I'm the rabbit catching up.
