Braden
i'm terrified of not dying
i'm tired of you lying
the end of the world
is exciting

i'm excited to die,
because there is
so much to
look forward
to
The ordinary
Becomes the extraordinary
When the visionary
Depicts the good
E.
I break my own heart
Dreaming of the things
Unrealistically
Trust is earned slowly,
Over the course of one's life,
But lost in an instant.
