Turn off your electric
revival.
Fold yourself into
flesh origami
Undress into blankets
In you, I find
eternity yearns.

Let us sleep forever
Wake up when the past returns.
Through war and dystopia we shall
sleep forever
and wake
at every
day.

I could sleep away a war with you, I could sleep away a revolution.

I'm terrified.
Absolutely terrified.
Completely terrified.
Frozen in terror.
It's terrifying.
They're terrifying.
I'm terrifying.
You're terrifying.
I'm terrified.
Terror.
Terrified.
Good.
Repetition strips reality.
Terror doesn't sound real.
Not anymore.
Brain tricks are fun.
I use weird things like this all the time.
I make myself believe something when reality is terrifying.
What?
My best friend
Always laughed
When I smiled
And said I'd never mature

My best friend died
Before she could drive
Never getting to grow up
Never getting to mature

You say I'm immature
But I make people happy
I make complete strangers laugh
I make friends smile when they want to cry

Your so mature
You judged me
before you even knew me
But according to you that's maturity

So you can be mature
But I'm going to be me
That was all that we knew to
latch onto. This certain sensation of
what we knew to do, and how we can
match a mode of discontent.

All that we knew was that the grimace
of peaces surfaced the pain of underlying greed.
Not all with the food of gratitude, none left
of who could turn themselves into a single thought.

We are broken, and through our teeth we
grab what was past and smash it into
resistance. When screams are faltering to reveal
a song of latitude, all across the world we will

fall and rise from the ashes that were thrown
to blind us. But we have the guard of protection,
from a screen of human feelings so deep it is
impossible for the ruling classes, minority of

the masses, to possess.
This war cries to jubilation, when all we know
has fallen to replace our own souls with
a being completely free in collectivity.

The description of revolution from thought to action
...She ran asleep chasing
ghosts
Wondering why
she ended up
faithless
She had dreams
and a hope and
a glass of poison
in case things get
too much
Blinded and lost, she
prayed in the arms of
her shadow and
never wanted to stare
at the sun
Restless
she tried to rest
but it's a curse that she couldn't
and never
will...

You wore this slim black night shirt
a cotton cocktail dress
and Your hair fell in accidental curls
like a waterfall
                         "cute hair, right?"
yes actually
then You got in bed
and i got in bed

but i woke
and Your black dress
of soft clean cotton
was rising up Your leg
nothing but you underneath
and although it didn't matter
and of course no one would see
i adjusted it
....Time slows and I am still.
these feelings make me give my heartbeat recognition as I rest my head
upon a crimson pillow,
and I can hear it muttering as do the sound of leaves
slowly but surely building as I breathe
And as my head sinks deeper into this bed I can feel you
I feel you, and I hear you.. a continuous echoing voice within me
without your voice I am lost. the waves it makes are short and sweet, quiet but raging...
an energy that reaches me from far distances
and a feeling that burns and brings me alive.
and although I cant quite put my finger on it yet and touch,
  I always listen and I am in turn,
always reassured.
