Batchelor

Batchelor Apr 2020

My body's silently cooling back down

The warmest dead body I've ever had.

Yet as I fade away from you, from me

I'm beside you, in time.

"I know it's getting late."

My Lullaby - TBOUT

This will come true

Pull me out of this pyre

Be my broken record

Repeating what I need to hear

Til I fall

Deep

Deep

Deep

For you.

"Help me I'm in Hell."

Be A Blank Slate - TBOUT

And if finding
That I moved

from wanting you
Needing you

To not desiring

Any of this

I deserve to be forgotten.

That's life.

Prehistoric Promises - TBOUT

Through the scant scratches of pain

And the breaking of reasoning

Thus the collapse of love

Aether illuminating the aftermath's gloom

We've come to realize

Life will always find a way.

And they'll keep coming.

Redoubt - TBOUT

Dancing, we go again, not unlike a carousel, spinning in place.

Memories of yesterday when you opened your eyes,

Expecting you to utter words I knew you would never speak

It's time to put this chapter to rest

The future is a white canvas

And only my will

Can leave traces on it.

I fortify myself again in my Memory Palace.

Warmth - TBOUT

Fire.

Fire everywhere again.

Only that their flames are freezing ones.

That the warmth, once emblazoned into their being,

Is long dead & gone.

Conflagration.

Self Fulfil - TBOUT

All I ever was, to find validation from others.

All that I am now , for contentment.

It's a self-fulfilling prophecy.
