  Sep 2024 SomebodyProbably
Ayla Grey
You swore you'd love me until the end of time
But now the end is getting nearer
And I still don't even see your face
When I look into the mirror

What now I see is shadows
Cast from shaky lights above
Where your little voice cries out
"What once was here was love"
SomebodyProbably Sep 2024
Maybe they were right, maybe I am crazy
And what else could possibly be done
When so many of my friends fought the oceans depths
And the oceans have always won

Now its my turn to slay the beast
Beneath the endless blue
Maybe I'll emerge victorious
Maybe I'll get to see you...


-For Etika and Javier
The ocean represents depression, and though two of the three people this is dedicated to drowned in some body of water, depression quite literally killed all of them.

And they were my friends...

The second part is about me wanting to dive into the same ocean that Etika did, to see if I could survive what he did not, while simultaneously hoping that I don't for the possibility of seeing him again.
SomebodyProbably Jan 2024
I come here to become undone
My words like fingers pulling at loose threads
Until its all out there, in ribbons and shambles
A relatably undiscernible mess.
SomebodyProbably Sep 2023
I've tried all kinds of ****
Lord knows I'm an addict
But nothing quite hits
Like you
SomebodyProbably Mar 2021
Your lips are like ***** on ice
I'll sip on your bitter disposition
For as long as you make me feel warm inside
SomebodyProbably Feb 2021
Caterpillars evolve into butterflies
And my pen will soon stop writing your name
Life is hard but the one constant
is that nothing ever stays the same.
SomebodyProbably Feb 2021
"Sometimes you have to be cold in order to be safe"
And that's just what I'll do
Cloaked in snow
Memories in tow
I'll forge this path anew
