first theres nothing
a little sting,
maybe its recovering from the shock
then slowly
blood starts to well
small droplets
sitting above the cut
as it drips
theres still little pain
you've dried the blood
washed it away
cleaned yourself up
then the pain hits
it burns

will there ever be a day                              
when people are just dust    
nothing more
where it doesnt matter          
how happy, sad, perfect, imperfect
you are              
where being gay, straight, bi
doesnt matter    
religion doesn't occur    
because thoughts are limited
only floating matters  
getting caught in                                    
different air flows                                  
rising and sinking                                  
will there be a day
where life is just                that.
life,                                                                 and death
is another way
of living
