it feels like my mind is being stretched out
like taffy
it sticks to one's fingers
sickly sweet
swallowed whole, no chewing

it's also akin to a TV set
a dizzying tizzy of static
colorbars across the screen
only seen in black/white to me

my every thought is a grain of sand
once neatly nestled together caressed by calm waves
but
a hurricane came through
and now
their scattered
*they're scattered.
and *****!
oh, how they are *****.
but then again, sand is always ***** isn't it?

i don't know where i'm going with this
i lost the way to 'metaphor' or 'inspiration'
so i'm just going where the wind takes me
and hoping i'm not chaining myself to a tornado
who talks to me while I sleep
in whispers and sighs that only a lover knows
warmth of touch I cannot move
floating in colors of lucid dream
I awaken to hear the words and feel the warmth
fade into the wooden floors

my conscious soul abducted
I live another life in fleeting years
the line becomes closer
my thoughts remain clear
what is dream
and what is not
where does time not exist

I was never special but you made me think I was when you picked me from all the stars.

I never knew you could make me feel over the moon until you hugged me tenderly.

I never imagined that my dreams would come true until you came to me.

But now you have shown me how replaceable I am.

And without you..
I think I've lost everything.
I think you've found your happiness with her..
Be happy.. I want you to be happy.

It’s better


It’s better if I am not around people;
They are all much happier that way.
It’s better if I avoid conversations;
I have nothing to say.


It’s better when the rain is falling;
I understand the rain.
It’s better if I never existed;
You will have to read my brain.


It’s better if you don’t try to understand;
I have no more empathy.
It’s better if I never find out,
What you truly think of me.


It’s better than me,
The version you see,
When we first begin,
To meet.


Once you get to really know me,
You will all see,
Why it’s better without me.
