i crumble on my feet
you look at me
like i’m the ground
thumping each step
with such vigor
even if i’ve managed
to keep the key
the points and turns
still earns for bliss
for what words say
treat it like honey dew
wrap it around like yarn
the way cats play them
as they form abstract
during mom’s daytime
i’ve been in the galaxy
coalesced with the stars
forged with the sun’s heat
wrapped around the planets
as the milky way release
i’m back to reality
and the temple remains
as it is even if i let
someone in or out
the path stays golden

your eyes remind me
of a toy i used to play
i don't miss it
but i remember it
deep by the blue ocean
covered with the sand
sitting with the rest
of the lost treasures
it seems as if yesterday
was the golden hour
of my time on earth
for you were there
as i try to memorize
the maps on your back
the concave of your mouth
the painting of your body
leave me with the statue
the resemblance of you
for my heart feels safer
when i'm with you
the head might be mad
with your hand i must
fill the different cracks
with your everlasting love

you'll never know how it feels
to be a potato being fried
being mixed with salt or cheese powder
as people eat and digest you in their stomach
you'll never know how it feels
to be a teddy bear being hugged
or punched at because of its softness
since it has no life so you just kept doing it
you'll never know how it feels
to be the fat kid in your class
because you were popular
and everyone admired the pretty ones
you'll never know how it feels
to be gay as people tear you apart
because you're a disgrace
and the bible told you you're invalid
you'll never know how it feels
to be black because your skin is clear
and they never tried to **** you
because of your race and skin color
you'll never know how it feels
to be vincent van gogh as he tried
to poison himself by eating yellow paint
and drinking turpentine
you'll never know how it feels
to be a **** victim
whether you're a man or a woman
because you kept thrusting and it hurt
you'll never know how it feels
to be in heaven or hell
because you're dead
and you're starting somewhere ahead
