i walk each day with slow strides
into a tomorrow of uncertainty
each step, closer to the end
each breath, hoping to be the last
i feel my blood flow
in the form of cascades
the flesh, torn and shredded
meant to be devoured by the wolves
you've held me in my dreams
where i wished would last forever
as i crumbled into your arms
with the bones of a brittle man

can we stop pretending
that we aren't longing
for the touch of another?
the soft caress of a kind hand
touching every inch of your soul
with sincerity
can we stop pretending
that we're okay
of being lonely?
the steady steps of isolation
consuming our desire
to be loved and cared for
can we stop pretending
that we're okay?
treasure the depth
of sadness you possess
for when happiness arrives
it'll be all the more worth it

through the glass on my living room window
on the rosebushes in my garden
stood a proud, beautiful sunflower
butterflies parading this amazing flower
with the monarch
waltzing on the disc florets
a sight truly breathtaking
the shadows of the kaleidoscope
brought a familiar feeling within me

you hold on to so much love
for someone who's never coming back
you carry so much grief
for a love that never lasted
you cling to so much weight
of your mind's endless insanity
you show too much emotion
for a life worth nothing

and it's you

the snowcapped mountains
whisper secrets every dead hiker moaned
witnessed by avalanches
burying corpses of sweet nothings
the lush verdant lake
holding hands with kelpies
drowning innocent children
granting them an eternal state
of sleep
the swamp mire
gripping your feet with certainty
clutching your soul, unable to leave
holding you hostage
for the rest of your life

you thought about your future when you were a child
in a home full of love and regret
bruises covering your body, with anger and hate
prayed for better days, and moon listening to all your secrets
every night, a sweet yet lonely evening
looking forward to a new day, happier, better
now you're 25
everyday, a dreadful feeling
thinking only of surviving another day
in a home full of dysfunction and screams
your shattered mind, filled with loneliness and self-hate
yearned for better days, and the September mist kissing you goodbye
everyday, a spacious yet cold bed
clutching a mug of coffee in your hand
looking forward to a better life that'll never arrive, gone

dove into the sea
deeper than any explorer dared to venture
surrounded by a coil of eels
panicked and swung my arms around the hull
destroying my paper submarine

emerald ash borers
carved ash trees with your name
aligned with burnt ruby letters
bleeding resin and tears
newspaper boats
floating on the flooded kitchen floor
ghost sailors, exploring the plates and silverware
scattered across the room
fluffy feline
scratch marks across my skin
pruning every inch of my body
that had every part of you
egregious expectation
a solemn act of self harm
sinking glass inside my ruinous mind
an ephemeral moment, eternally looped

an antique sewing machine
creating a kite-like house
with miles of thread
from an endless garden of spools
a worn-out music box
conjuring an eerie kind of melody
due to missing cogs
and rusted lever
an elated lady
feeling the blades of grass
between her toes
and the cool breeze, kissing her skin
a wistful gentleman
drowning in embers of a burning house
ceiling collapsing, bones breaking
suffering, never ending
