a word never truly ends scrawled upon a piece of paper the ink sinking inside demanding a million more words to follow

to do list
for whatever reason i cannot move i cannot breathe i cannot think for whatever reason i am paralyzed by the lack of movement in my chest for whatever reason i am asphyxiated by the lack of air in my lungs for whatever reason i am disoriented by the plethora of voices in my head

i adore you and you adorn me the way you say my name makes it harder to breathe the way you drag your fingers up and down my skin makes it feel more beautiful something like porcelain which is fragile as hell

an artist can love you like no other could, they feel what you feel and see what you see therefore they understand and hold no judgement only adoration

demolition's hatred
the rise and fall of his chest like the ocean's waves rocking me back and forth back and forth his long lashes like the brush sweeping across my skin hypnotizing me with every flutter the warmth of his skin radiating like the sun leaving me saturated with happiness

he was unique in many more ways than one his laugh could cure many of my diseases and in those moments it's as if they never existed his chest could save me from a cold day and was the most beautiful i had ever seen his eyes could melt me for they entranced me with every flutter his promises could never fail for every syllable was my new favourite

air between my fingers
i'd give anything to go back to how i used to be to wake up and see everything in its glory instead of its shame to not dread the cold on my feet or the warmth of the water to not dread waking up would be lovely
