weird ig
I cleaned out my closet But I was too depressed to get rid of anything so There’s an elephant skeleton in the room The hallow eyes follow me around I meant to return it But I never got my blankets back so I decided to burn it But it’s been too hot outside for a bonfire So I’ll wait until the air smells like the happiest months I knew you And I’ll destroy it

Elephant skeleton
If you need to drunk ramble at 3 am when I have work the next day If you need a place to crash If you need someone to tell you you’re doing the right thing Or that you’re just okay Or that you’re the best thing that’s ever happened to someone If you need someone to feed you and rub your back Or play with your hair Or do your laundry because you’re too depressed Or motivate you to do things that make you happy Or to sit in silence with You’ll have to call someone else Because I changed my number.

If you need anything
You didn't bring me into this world And you won't be the reason I leave it My scars can spin a different narrative But hell’s a place and I’ve seen it I’ve felt its delicate ringlets around my broken fingers But you have to believe I didn't feed it In fact I witnessed the worst parts of Satan's charm And you have to see that I beat it Before it could take my sister and brothers away

Escaped
Whatever it was My body is dismembering itself trying to find it If it ever existed at all My personality mere shreds of a mind that once hosted the sporadic and filthy stages of grand plays all delicately directed behind a purposefully sheer curtin begging for tomfooler-esque low lifes to stop by for a show I've never craved the feeling of decency but the ecstasy of pain and the cold dehumanization I thrived for so dearly seems now more a chaotic choice in paths than an exploitation of the weaknesses around me I'd be just as happy baking to death in the desserts of an unhappy trip with no sober grip on reality As I would be living happily ever after in a tastefully decorated house with realities despotic grip on me But the choice is yours, not mine.

Violent depersonalization
At such a point as that which breathing does not define life of an entity At such a point as that which heart does not define living At such a point as that which soul is irrelevant At that such point lies the true purgatory: living

3 Mazurkas, op. 56 NO. 1 in B Major
You poems are always about you who are you Well we see you as the depiction of absolute perfection we see you as the broken painting picture perfect smoke kissing spin the bottle absolutely everything we want to be ours But who are you

Ours
"My name is Death." He said with some finality. "and you shall feel my cold hands groping your throat," and I did. "and you shall feel my cold hands brushing your breast," and I did. "and you shall feel my cold hands trace your thighs," Oh, I did feel it. "and you shall feel my cold hands rip the life from you so that we may dance this once." and what a marvelous dance it was; my brush with him. I wish to feel it again, that love.

Oh, death I do long for.
I'm fighting against this wave of "new age artists" every masterpiece written on napkins crumbled up into poets pockets I'm fighting to keep my head above the water we're all drowning in our tears we're all just put here to wander is there a god? do they like poetry, do they recite slam in heaven, is that what causes earthquakes? am I a real poet will anyone ever read my work or will it just go un noticed will my voice ever reach the atmosphere I'm fighting to scream louder than the others to give a voice to the kids who were better at algebra than english because they don't have the creative capacity to say these things am I a real poet

she doesn't ******* love you what can she give you that I can't every time we hang out she's there and I can't get the thought out of my head that we'd be so much better you and I we used to take on world and make each other laugh until we cried what happened to that? she doesn't understand your humor it's getting cold again, you know, I left my ex for you once but you got with her and I had to beg him to take me back what's that about? you led me on in the back seat of your car your jacket off and your heat on and we just talked you tried to kiss me once then we stopped talking because she practically begged you for your love you're not happy now. you're proving a point it's not days in between our conversations anymore it's months I haven't seen you in forever but every time I do I can tell that little ***** is draining the life out of you you look haunted and you look tired. and I'm sick of it. I talk to everybody and they agree with me you know I thought it was just jealousy but it isn't everyone sees it I heard her talking **** about you and she admitted to me that she gets jealous of our relationship and I asked her what that means because you and me we don't talk she kept asking me why I ignored her and she kept asking me why I ******* hate her. I'm not saying you should have dated me from the start or whatever but did it have to be gobinet

I'm not made for you. We won't fit like perfect puzzle pieces, I can't give you the whole world and magically make it look somewhat decent. You expect too much from me. I can't even look out for myself, you sit there and watch me crying on the floor and come asking me for help, I can't support you. It'll hurt me too much to try, your codependency is overbearing I don't text you and you wonder why. I can't do this. But I can't tell you that right now, if I leave you it gives you a reason to start drinking and you'll just drag me down. I don't love you. But I don't think you care, every thought I have in the back of my head somehow you're always there. Just stay away from me. I don't want this anymore. You aren't the person that I want to be with, and you're starting to **** me off.
