24/F/spacetime a reflection of all that I have yet to meet
you have never lived until you trust fall into the earth engulfed by the mother she cradles you soaks up your tears with her dirt a breeze hugs your neck kisses off the sweat I forget there's something so loving why do we act like children who don't know how to use their words upset at everything around them I need something so much bigger a tornado inside of a thunderstorm I feel like I am dissipating there's something calling my name yet it's whispering

UNGRATEFUL
this bright light consuming molecules of what seem to make us up contained in these fleshy self operating watery bodies skipping around each other talking to ourselves brain function a mystery I do not command my heart to beat like the drums in your high school band it's function is self disciplined i wish i had as much control as my digestive system how it works constantly never procrastinating we are solar systems whirling, beeping stardust particles with feet we dance across seas of earth dirtying skins that hold our organs in

ourselves
you can only hold so much in until your blood cells burst from claustrophobic oxygen. trials, tribulations and trauma trials, tribulations trials

high off coffee scents and cigarettes i sat in the corner of the coffee shop All the elders wore bracelets saying Christ but they forget he's not an accessory there's deeper meaning to this son of God, but I am merely a moth trapped inside a rich man's screened porch

stuck
Oh god how I cannot manage my tears They dance down the dark circles of my eyes Washing my cheeks satisfied to be seen the release is worth the tightened grip but dear god how I thought I could control all of this

I created you into a paradigm, something you never were or were ever meant to be. wishing on each cardinal that crosses A fever dream of a summer plays tug of war with ones hopes in an uncomfortable motion. but I am reminded I have the skin of a dreamer, hollow bones to carry me along this current pull up the tainted plants eat them for breakfast. whispering into a sin so vague there is no forgiveness

pull them up
But thin air upon your veins, believing in what isn't there, absence everywhere. i'm not lonely, but i'd love some company. hermit bound introvert impulsive quixotic intuitive idealist, a realistic cynic it's not quite so simple is it? the substance of lust altering an easily adaptive mindset. if you're much older (than you're willing to admit) use them for reassurance. you don't need friends, release the cry's for relative human beings to the quick, i feel sick i've lost my willingness to be apart of it.

simplicity
i haven't slowed down since i began walking, the destination is simply farther than the map requested. noted i lost myself in the beginning roaming around foolishly awaiting happiness to come to me. Yet I know my intellect I am made to ignite things. bursting each cell given life into an ember, one thin string of smoke. i am one of the things I've blown up.
