the sky is clear it’s a good day a few clouds but it mostly clear it’ll be good no worries barely any clouds only a thirty percent chance of ******* up my day thanks a lot daylight savings don’t you know i can’t work at night it’s just too dark i can’t see what i’m doing how’s the forecast today sad, i bet the wind will carry me into a tree stuck like a cat the thunder won’t turn off in my head it’s too loud to sleep too scary to stay awake the wind is yelling at me the fog is making me confused but this sun gives me hugs this breeze is reassuring... ~you know the weather doesn’t control your feelings right~ wrong **** you.

it was happy outside, yesterday
Let my death be on display as my life is. Allow my body to remain on the Earth and feel the wind creep past every crevice of my body. Keep my scrawny features in the foreground, straw-sized wrists and all. Expose my coarse skin to all those elements, let them watch my curls drop and my skin dull out to a pale gray. Rub my corroded bones, feel what’s missing. Watch the bugs crawl out of my cracked chest. Look at my weak arms. Admire my scratched up legs. Notice the features chipped off my face. Let me put myself on natural display. Let me show the world what it made of me. Let this be how I rest in peace.

how to dispose of my body
to you little lighthouse who i was not sure would appear, now with your little finger peaking out from your little *** proud and small, soon to be big and scary and sharp i need you more than you need me, Spiky and that is true so much so my brother and i made it permanent, gave up a limb each to your edges and curves, had needles poke them into our skin because like you we felt self-sufficient self-sustaining thriving on neglect like you we felt barely watered by those who sowed our seeds like you our defenses are now on the outside protruding and pricking nonetheless when i checked last you had grown your first spikes.

ode to the baby cactus sitting in my room
If the trees would speak, They’d tell me to leave, To find my roots, Grow up to the clouds, And find my peace.

reunited?
it is unfair for me to love when I know I could be gone in the blink of an eye. it is unfair to make you love me when I can’t even bear to live at all.

10 words of my missing you
Your name has always sounded to me The way happiness feels, The perfect shaping of words, The most soothing movements of the mouth. My stomach cramps up at the sight of you. It does not hurt, no, you see: It does not hurt at all. Not compared to how I feel when I remember, That you, Once filling up my lungs with your very presence, Making breathing all that much easier for me, Still by my side on my exhale, Is now out of sight, Unfamiliar, Distant, Out of reach.
