Wind melts over me
as I close my eyes and spread
my obsolete wings.
_
I gasp for an ounce of sky as the strands of my own hair whirl around my neck like snakes, my own lashes push the dust in my eyes as my vocals turn themselves to stone;
still my screams echo in the hollow caves of my ears, still my lungs keep pounding, still I see the vaccancy around me.

Down I go. Still I go on.

Gazing upon stars
Illuminating the sky
Even after death
Sometimes I get lost in the night sky wondering how many stars arw actually dead but we cab still see their glow of life

Pondering dark thoughts
Tossing and turning in sweat
Yearning for slumber

Today was a dream
Unconsciously I worked
Whilst the mind wondered
Dissociated hard at work today and daydreamed while my body performed medial tasks on its own.

I saw you crying
And even for a moment
I saw the real you

I don't deserve all
the love I've been given
But I love you all

Roll it, light it, smoke.
Puff puff pass it to the left.
Take a deep breath, relax.

Those days are long gone
Memories trapped in the past
We have grown apart

The trees keep growing
The flowers keep blossoming
Shouldn't we still grow?
With everything happening in the world I find it strange that people always say thats how it's always been or that is how Ive always done it. Life is continually growing and changing into a better you. Don't stunt your growth

Sometimes love is a bug
That you have caught in a jar
You must let them free

drawn by budding child,
my hope is uneven but
never wilts away.

With love.

No matter how close,
the surface seems miles away
when you're out of air.
I don't know when I wrote this.
