Wasilla, Ak
And then he left It shot me point-blank. His words on My screen. The gnarles in the pit of my stomach Twisting, turning, a bright burning My lungs were a popped party balloon Only good for a short while Used for the looks, in a crooked nook To dress up the ugly My Fingers numb Cold and bitter Slicing the texts with razor sharp pain "Ok" I said "Goodbye" The memories were vivid Clawing and clinging You did it so well And in the deep dark place That i call Alyx I took those last seconds in Breath in, breath out I poured my lungs out I Screamed into that pillow Held myself in my blanket Still wearing your adiadas tee You did it so well Mascara running Trying to get away from me Like you did I sat in the quiet place Of my frayed brains Scrubbed raw I am a nuclear blast Of what i should be And what i really am Am i a what? I can't say i miss you Or that i need you Or that i want you Or that you are my other half But what i can say is When you left me When you shot me point-blank When you left my head pounding And spinning like a top When you left me with a stomach of acid When you left me with numb, gnarled fingers You also left yourself

Letting you go Tearing the limbs from my torso I can't tell you how Agonizing it is Ripping you away gently Bleeding you out from my life It's killing me But I know it's the wisest option To let you go Because through the suffering We learn the best about ourselves And learn how to love each other again

I'm sorry
And in those days; we were silent Flutters of empty; hymns of hollow. And in those moments; Space was sticky And in those times; We sat ticking away

They creep And crawl Up and down my walls Skittering from the light Embracing my shadow They sit suspended in a dark corner But oh Such a pretty sight Keeps me company In all hours of each day Shifting in and out of my focus But is transparent to the world My little thoughts With all of their branches Reaching and snagging my entirety But oh How they tempt me so Because they know which one is My most charished, worn down, set in I hold it in the locker of my mind It's safe Even from you
