I keep feeding

Myself

I'm the master of my own

Stomach

Ache

I keep breathing the air

I don't find the Lord

I only find my mirror

I have to go to sleep when I can no longer stay awake

My eyes burn when I stare too long at the stars

I fly so far away

But I'm still right here

I don't feel bad about it

I see you die

I don't regret a thing

You read my words

They were not me

They were just something I thought

At one point in time

I say goodbye forever

But it all keeps coming up

I can't complain about it

It's all I've wanted

You come back to life

Every time

You feel alone

So alone that you can't be with just yourself

Anymore

You come back to life

Every time

You don't want to be just one

Forever

God

That's the longest time

The only time

I've ever known

Smart enough to figure it all out

Smart enough to not tell anyone about it

I'll leave you with the final idea

Think about it

Won't you?

I thought it was dry

. . .

But we're drinking straight vermouth

And we've ran out of wine

Along with everything else

But ice

And the sand that made the glass

Don't forget how broken it all is

Was

Or when we put it all together

I wrote it so you know I was here

I wrote it

So you knew

What was true and untrue
Jace Albine Sep 2024
If ever I thought it was worth it

I would have mentioned it

The first time

If ever I remembered it

I would have hoped that it would have been the last time

What good is it?

And what good is it not?

I do not know

The only thing I ever know is that it ever existed

Now show them the best

Because it's too late to not give a ****

Was it all just a dream?

You'll ask yourself forever

But really you'll only ever be

Alive in the present
