you tried to feed
me stardust
sway and hold me
as we danced

you tried to make a home
out of me
open my shutters
let the light
flood inside
push sheer magenta
curtains aside

you tried to run
your fingers reverently
over my rosewood

you tried to ***** my home
raise it from the island
kiss my lips after broken
storms hold my hands in your own convince me that you  replaced my old
broken doors
peeling paint and vinyl siding

you tried to
feed me stardust
sway and hold me
as we danced

you tried to make
a home out of me
but I was really an island
ready to be claimed
by the fire and the sea
It’s so easy to

Myself in the

infinite

loudness

of your soul
I'm an anxious person.
storms are my playthings.
chaos is the joy in my heart.

snippets of musing and metaphor.
there's someone
   in my head, but
it's not me. 

  “there was always that
          for everyone, some
             just more than others.”

     I have a *******
   military base
in my head.

       I am planning out
   missions taking place
halfway around the world. 

    “I hate needing something.
             it makes me feel weak.”

       I was the same way
for human assistance. 

but the drugs? those
   were just chemicals
       and I am a science
                    experiment.

                I'm something
         you have known
     about for months,
   finally throwing
together at the
last moment.

the bitter reflections of an addicted brain.

this is a rapport:
a conversation I never had.
Silent mouth and silent mind
The ignorant language of my kind.

To question is to be discouraged,
Brains to ravage not to flourish.

Don't question those who know more than you, don't look for knowledge, don't seek what's true.

Should we speak for others?
And say what can't be said
Or should we follow suit
And accept we should be led.
Conformity - right is right even if no-one is doing it, wrong is wrong even if everyone is doing it.
