Cool morning blues
break warmer
as the sun floats gently
over the horizon.

Eyes flutter open,
the creases and cricks are
pushed out into a polite yawn...

A new day dawned,
lost hopes replaced with a new desire,
freedom whispers you can do it!

And I for once,
believe I can!
Alas,
once again,
like the emotionally insane refugee
who cannot find comfort in assylum,
there is no communion.

I come to find her gone,
And the vacuous space she left behind
Immeasurable.
And I can't figure out
why you're still on my mind
after all this time.

dusting my cabinet with the sleeve of my hoodie
this is endless
my sheets smell like cigarettes
and where is all this glass even coming from?
there's an 18 year old boy who lives upstairs
and i can hear him crying sometimes
in the middle of the night
and i can't help but to imagine
he is lying face down on the floor
because every breath he takes
is crystal clear
what do 18 year olds cry about anyway?
he had this girlfriend for like three weeks
she was always asking me for ****
i haven't gotten high since i was sixteen
the year you died
it kinda lost its kick
and now i just can't get back to it,
i would if i could though
it's not like ive found god
it's just that getting ****** up
isn't fun anymore,
it's just heavy
and exhausting
i broke a nail trying to
untie the rope
so i left him hanging,
he's always hanging
on every word i say
and i can't bear the look on his face
in the morning
he's so sad
and i'm so *******
at myself
for deciding not to care
they told us,
"one day you'll get where you're going,
the sky will open up
and you'll feel like you were chosen"
but my feet are aching
and i'm sorta caving
so i'm just gonna sit it out
from here on out
swallow some pills
and let the night
take me out,
i could have been a constellation,
but i'm a tangled mess of veins
that are too dry for saving,
let me have this,
just let me go
don't call an ambulance
i like the silence
i'll see you on the other side,
i heard it's always quiet

prompty
strange lives
fill
strange days
that
blend away
in
mystery.
i dreamt about you again—
us, being together; a dream come true.
love was not one-sided.
"i love you", you said.
yes, it was a happy dream
—suddenly became a sad dream
when i woke up
because that happy dream was
not real

I live, to die
I love, to hate
The truth is a lie

What is in between?

I die, to live
I hate, to love
The lie is a truth
Life is a paradox.
