Alarm
Bones Oct 9
My alarm clock breaks
The numbers freeze forever
Time stops for us both.

Ears
Bones Oct 13
I speak for hours
Ears that can hear surround me
They do not listen.

Paper
Bones Oct 9
I have a paper
A plan vivid in my mind;
I throw it away.

Hidden
Bones Oct 22
You glance at me once
There's no disgust in your eyes
I know you feel it.

Walls
Bones Oct 22
Invisible walls
Block all human connections
I'll die in this house.

Wither
Bones Oct 13
I lay in my bed
The plants on my shelf wither
I wither with them.

Teeth
Bones Oct 9
My teeth are too sharp
I bleed when I bite my tongue
I take out my tongue.

Meaning
Bones Oct 22
Life has no meaning
I search for one anyway
I fail and perish.

Taut
Bones Oct 13
My veins are drawn taut
Fishing line beneath my skin
I extend outwards.

God
Bones Oct 9
God
I look to the sky
And beg God for forgiveness
My plea goes unheard.

Dust
Bones Oct 9
Dust collects in fall
Too high to clean by springtime
I cry in winter.

Paths
Bones Oct 9
Paths lie before me
It is too dark to see them
I look to the sky.
