 Apr 2019 A Simillacrum
Folie
Why care for the world when we can set it all on fire
Catch my personality in a pyro’s attire
Spiral through my desires and watch gasoline make the flames get higher
Inspired by passion
I’m tired of waiting for sparks, fuel, or a lighter
I’m tired of looking at this fire
I’m tired.

Flighty
Frightened

Words can't contain a world
Ironic fact that I wrote
Words are nothing but a road
leading to the higher

Words are not the thing itself
The thing itself needs nothing else

The cancer is not fully extirpated
It died inside my body instead
I watch it like a dead corpse
but indeed, once a time it was

I still breathe it...I can feel it
it is gone but forever kept
Not with nostalgia or regret
Just like one watches something dead
My love,
Stop hurting yourself.
I watch you as your hands bleed,
After picking up the shards of glass from her broken heart.
You say you're okay, but you're not.
You keep moving until you become paralyzed.
Why do you do this?
Is it because of love?
Is it because you're lonely?
How far are you willing to go?
My head is filled with black-striped bees
Bizzing and buzzing as they please
The world's a thund'ring 'fall
Roaring its loud call
Life's a tornado
Then I see
Silence
You
Away
Right
Boats
Off
Rail
