here is to words, / and even more words
The wisps of smoke in the air, the hazy vision from the short-lived high. The cheap thrills on the road to nowhere, drunk off stolen ***** from the cupboard of your house. The pulse of your heart in beat with the music, the remedy of your depression coursing through your veins. The unfeigned laughter and guileless smiles, this is what it means to be part of the misguided youth.

today
(she was there and everywhere, the sun peaking through the clouds, and salty beach waves at noon time. warm beer and burnt cigarettes, red wine at breakfast. the smell of new comic books, and ink splattered on the table top. watercolors and ripped paper, shades and hues—weaving, fading. all at once and gone again)

always, always.
How will it ever be fair that you've affected me in ways I cannot describe when to you, I'll always be nothing but matter and occupied space?

I have come To a standstill A point in time When the ***** Running down My throat suddenly Tastes a lot Like love Like beauty Like lust

Your heart,
how many emptied cups of coffee? how many crumpled papers littering around? how many broken bottles of beer? how many cigarette stubs flattened on the ground? how many stonewashed mornings? how many sleepless nights, empty and dull? how many will it take to forget you? tell me, how many?

Quantify
It’s about the tears staining your cheeks and the pills on your tongue. It’s about crying in the dead of the night and the drugs you force in your veins. It’s about weakness when nobody’s looking and the blade poised on your wrist. It’s about breaking down when everyone’s unaware and your shaky grip on the noose. It’s about wanting to just disappear and your finger on the trigger. It’s about wanting to let go, be entirely free and your feet planted on the ledge. It’s about you against your demons and a tired heart that ceased to beat.

You know what’s sad? It’s when all we have left are blurred memories of a happiness too long ago.

A question to my present
