privilege

sh
the counter is almost at 4 months.

were the burning hot showers.

you.
Elias Aug 2021
it was too short.

way too short.

those four godawful days.

where i lost my mind.

but not in a way you would think.

i didn’t stop caring about anything.

i became overly aware of everything.

your smile.

your laugh.

the sound of your voice.

your hair.

your eyes.

the perfection of your teeth.

your arms.

your hands.

the tenderness of your fingers.

your manners.

your personality.

you.

maybe i'm not meant to be
Elias May 2021
maybe i'm not meant to be
not meant to move
not meant to exist
not meant to live

maybe i'm not meant for you
not meant for fun
not meant for joy
not meant for love

maybe i'm not meant for emotions
not meant for tears
not meant for anger
not meant for laughs

maybe i'm not meant to be.

another love ~ tom odell

did we both fall in love?
Elias Feb 2021
did we both fall in love
before we were ready?
or did we both give up
before we were steady?
~
were we both too scared
or were we well prepared?
for the future
and all the mistakes that it bears
~
these are questions in my head
and i don't know where this will end.
but we're a thousand miles apart
it may be better to restart.

Elias Feb 2021

the poem of true freedom
Elias Jan 2021
"new milo, when i brought you into the world i said to you "this is the world".
i showed you my one-by-one block and i said "this is the world, this is all there is. just a single block of existence and you will live here forever."
new milo, i may have fabricated the truth slightly.
new milo, there's a lot more to the world.
and you may be thinking like ah, there’s so much more to this world that you wish you could go explore.
well i’ve got good news for you, new milo.
you can go and explore it. you can go and explore this world.
this is all yours, every square inch of ocean, is yours.
that’s all i want to do. that’s all i’d like to do.
i want new milo to swim forever.”
