You **** every part of me, except the parts you look at me.
I turn to run, but my dreams are dreams, they load the gun.
And when I sleep I am the sleet, the ice shelf that tears away from safe embrace.
Tips and sinks into the deep, exposed to what may lay beneath.
And the best of me,
Slips away.
The rest of me,
Wastes away.
What silouette drifts away to the rising sun is cool and calm.
The surface shimmers brilliantly, a glass, a ghost, drowning out what I was made to be.

You rise,
you begin,
disheleveld and unfurled.
your ghost,
your own heliographic hell.
your personal
psilocybin prison
distorting the Milgram-esque identity
have thou identified yourself.
Ombrophilic coping mechanisms
to dive under the swell and to avoid
being hit with the stimulated taste of lead,
not unlike your narcissist, altruistic self.
Your cerebrum concocted as a sting of seashells
So that your hypothalamic master
Can be portrayed vicariously
through someone else.

Your warmth brought me the courage to face my fears.
Your embrace brought me to tears.

Silver bands encircle withering fingers like planets,
the perpetual orbits of my index, middle, and ring.
Gazing endlessly at the ceiling from the sunken duvet,
pondering deeply—
Am I a chain's soft whisper or fractured platter?
Porcelain once pristine,
seen but scattered, across the kitchen marble.
a beloved bowl and useful.
Born of quarry's womb, kin of the chemical elements.
One of a millionfold in earth's embrace,
hewn, shaped, smoothed, bartered,
Reduced to a single, awkward grain in the wind.

The way you glance at me and smile above your coffee cup.
I feel your love, and smile back.

There was a breeze inside,
Colour from my face.
On the walls and in my soul,
Those black roses fade.
You left us with a fractured shadow.
You left so much heartbreak.
So I breathe, and I speak your name.
And I know, you know my pain.
Because you were the same.
So go, just go. Away.
Your photos will be packed away
so I don't endure every day seeing your face.
And those black roses fade.

Be not the king, for you are the kingdom.
Be not the Shepard, for you are the sheep.
Be not the broken road, for you are to travel
Be not the death of you dreams, for you are are to reap.

_Eponymous, insidious indifference._
_Existence._
_Towers before fates road, exquisite._
_Beckoning the soul to a fork._
_A question._
_A man can break who he used to be?_
_Or will he be? Until he breaks._
_Ponder at the fork, day passes day._
_From end to end, the requiem,_
_sings and rings, like a lovely dream_
_But beautiful things._
_Like destiny._
_Its crescendos extinguish._
_Try though, he does to see both roads._
_To sense and see the masquerade._
_No map to guide._
_No stars to follow._
_No end to see,_
_Through his glass shadow._

Lately, I've been stronger, than I've been
The ghosts don't creep and nights don't sew together,
Every rising sun, casts a shadow.
I shouldn't think about you, I know
The seasons change, but my love, it grows.
As we wind along the ocean road,
just to see how far it goes.
_But it always sets._
_It always_
_ends_
_in_
_shadow._
