lsd vision
made sad streetlights sparkle green
morphed rivers into mountains
it seemed
we walked 100 miles
in less than 5 minutes
and lived 100 lives
none of which survived
oh how things change
and how trauma has aged my bones

i don’t grasp how time works
hours go so slow
months blur into years almost suddenly
maybe i’ll grow into this loneliness
maybe it'll drive me mad
like black mold
hell
i’m already mad
i’ve thought about you for 1,825 days, or something like that
i did the math
last night i suffered body aches
but not in the coronavirus way
i let someone new hold me
while the thought of you crushed me
it’s painful, hard to open up
most days, massive effort to leave home
the anxiety ridden world barely turns
still i struggle to keep up
i just get high and listen to the National
remember how i used to cry to you, about poetry?
and now everything is a memory
that i keep alive through bias and unwarranted feeling
none of it could ever make sense
i almost touched you in my fever dream last week
and i said i wouldn’t get ****** in

i guess, some parts of pain we cling to
like dusky upstate nights
me, you, streetlights
marijuana
and dollar scratch offs in parking lots
2 broke ******** gambling for more
than that which their love could afford
kinda sad, i don’t write like i used to
but i don’t bleed that way either
and we don’t talk anymore
for good reason.
that will never change

the chill has set in
i start to feel lonely
like i did back then
but what im missing?
it’s different.
i don’t miss you.
i miss a past self-
someone you never knew
ive come to terms that love
can be riddled with abuse
i no longer miss such darkness
Russell, i refuse

ur lies breed like bacteria
i’m not fixated on what’s real anymore
i know i can’t get that from u
i go motion to motion
don’t wanna feed into ur massacre
i’m impartial
but still afflicted
guess loves contagious
silent killer

**** im
putting you through hell
refusing to see the human in you
refusing to believe anything at all
yet you’re strength
i mean: you are strength
you compensate
for my lack thereof
ive crashed into you for 3 years now
a recurring tidal wave
fell for your addict eyes long ago
love the clean ones just the same
you are my memories
you’re everything in me
you’re the courage i’ve found recently
i don’t give you enough credit.

let’s watch history repeat itself
we know the song and dance by now
i’ll push you away with contorted hands
let the delusions block me out
i’m never satisfied, it’s the ******* truth
addicted to attention, obsessed with you
but my expectations are always too **** high
& it’s impossible to see me through
love’s nothin but a pathetic joke
built to erode
what did i try to preserve
even roses decompose
i’m in pain
just a silhouette lately
yea i’m listening to elliott smith
crying
what did you ******* expect

here i am
attempting to love dead;
mourning past life
life before your words lacerated
my throat like a sharp knife
before you claimed
to love the girl behind
these crazy eyes
before i was confined
to a bed of nails and broken lies
i have no choice anymore
your love is but a show and
i beg for the encore
there was so much left
for our brains to explore
but trust has been shattered
and our hearts are at war

don’t even know
what i want anymore,
writing poems in your notebook
on my apartment floor
opened my soul to you
like i've never done before
you roamed its empty hallways
then you slammed the front door
and now you beg me to let you back in
does your love ever end or begin?
i don't want to be stuck
on what could’ve been
but i'm exhausted
from repenting for every sin
i’ve run out of ways
to numb the pain
when you're gone from my life
i smell your scent in the rain
all i wanted was my freedom
but you're a ball and chain
all i wanted was pure love
but this one's driving me insane

my violent ideations
quell at the presence of
you only
as you lean in for a kiss
i find myself again
in some analeptic bliss
my mind is subdued by
only you
but you stepped out from
my dreams and now
you haunt reality
and this love is just an addiction
that i can't help but feed.
