I get the shakes
I tremble
I get angry
I cry
I toss and turn
I fidget
I fight the urge
I fail
"I'll wait for you,"
when we were kids,
you had said.

But Jack's still comatose
and Jill is dead.

You never came.
Dust is my only memory.
White is the only color I see.
Emptiness is my only pulse.
Solitude is my only shelter.
In between all this chaos of nothingness lies my brain in a box of cigarettes.
Smoke becoming my only lover.
Caressing me with its ashes, while hypnotizing me with its nicotine.

I am looking for my mind and its nowhere to be found in this asylum
of heartless consumerism.
I am smoking my hopeless life away, with each cigarette.
Slowly burning my insides with its fatal dose of love.
Whispering: "ashes its all there is left after death, my darling."

Come lay with me
Please, just stay with me
Lose yourself within me
I want to be your company

Dear, get lost with me
Fuel your lust with me
Lose all cares within me
I will never be your enemy
