People are more than willing to talk about death behind its back,
but remain tight lipped when confronted
They are told the diagnosis but won't hear it

I stay silent
The signs are all there, but
Even though it hurts I still stare into the sun because the warmth is dear
I won't believe it. it can't be
I'm afraid of letting go
You don't get it, I'll die too
I'll keep ignoring the signs and find comfort in my own lies
I won't believe it
please, **no.
letting go of anything you love is hard

It's art for sure.
Pity, those onlookers who are near sighted,
Nothing but colors and patterns

I deny my eyes were made just right for the art,
But rather claim the opposite
Some look, but maybe I just know how to see

Because when I gaze, there she is
Look beyond the foreground, thats where the beauty lies

She is the fireplace which radiates inside my rib cage
My insurance for when my thoughts crash, and we both know they will
My perfect prescription for illnesses undiagnosed
My introduction to the kid formally known as myself
My captain, my first mate, and the wind in my sails
She is my

She. is

the pillow i rest my head upon and the director of my dreams and to others she may appear as one number but her beauty, oh her beauty, is pi

oh how i wish,
she could here,
how she is
One of a kind, like a snow flake. She's everything and more, just wish she was here to hear it

When my body can no longer dance to the beat of my heart
I will be gone, but not dead
When memories of me are buried inside their departed keepers
I will be gone, but not dead
When my family tree withers and my bloodline runs dry
I will be gone, but not dead
But when my name is spoken that final time
When the remaining trace of me leaves lips and along with it, existence
I will be gone, and I will be dead.

I dream of an ornate death
A sweet terminal sentence, not too long, not too short.
Embellished, with reverence and respect

I don't know who will **** me,
but I hope they do it *perfectly
The question "when will someone speak of me for the last time," along with who the speaker will be and the context, has always fascinated me. Will it be about some future accomplishment? Adoration? Worse? I guess we'll have to wait and see
