I fantasize about death like she fantasizes about life

I wish
But wishes are for dreamers

I wish my mother could
love herself
so she could could
love me,
so I could
love myself
and I could show you
how much
I love you.
But I do love you.
Unlike she loves me.

She knows lately her mind has not been of this world
But it hasn't been combing the cosmos either
Rather it drifts further and further into the black, unfurled
Only tiny flickers of planets that have since expired

She so yearns for her body to join her mind
To leave this lively atmosphere behind
For even when she shuts her eyes, the world is still around
Nothing can quite change the fact her feet are still on the ground.

And though you'll find this ending grim,
This planet no longer cages her in
She has joined her mind out in the dark
And has left behind no earthly spark
She has left the ground without a care
As her body hangs, suspended in the air.
wow this came out dark

(Not) Loving you is the hardest thing I have ever had to do
I love you

Tell me,
Do  you ever regret not following through with your own death
Do you ever wish you'd thrown your phone into the river
And let yourself slip away on the cool wet concrete

Because sometimes
Sometimes


I do.
Yes i spelled peaces that way on purpose
No this is not a poem
it is for myself

It follows you.
It stays
It hides
It runs
It grasps
It
Lives
