i don't have any trophies around here
and at this point i think i should

the key that i found
opened the wrong door

i feel like i could have thought of a lot of other ways to tell you how i actually felt

i decided to
flip the table
smash the glasses into my forehead
and bathe in bleach

tell me that i'll be nostalgic in your mind
an untold euphoria

sitting on this bench
alone

i got overwhelmed and got rid of most of it because i was overwhelmed

colonial hivemind
we are the active force
we are the agents
of our own pesticide

we are what's already been

untitled 87

life as a means of the beautiful but lethargic aura
**** the colors you might see
i ******* see them deeper

and i have nothing platonic to say to you
i've been holding you the entire time
so break free

untitled 86

i smile but clench my teeth so hard my gums bleed
i look to the sun to guide me
for presumably, i am lost
but a glance upward snaps my bones

like a bouquet of roses
dead from staying out in the rain

untitled 85

i spend three quarters of my time with you
i spend the remaining quarter losing my ******* mind

i didn't come out right
i didn't come out right
i didn't come out right
