purgatory Dec 2014
You're sitting at the kitchen table,
And the girl you love is cooking breakfast,
Or maybe it's a boy.
At this point you only care about the love that they give,
They bring in the plate but they are falling,
They keep going
Down the rabbit hole or down to hell, maybe to the center of the earth, but
they didn't really fall.
they just never existed.
now picture this:
The water is boiling and you can't remember putting the kettle on.
You walk upstairs and the lamp by your desk was on.
It's day like these you feel less alone,
Is there hope that someone is here that loves you?
But you remember turning the kettle on.
You remember because
It was to hear something besides your own breathing,
And you remember turning on the light
It was to see yourself for who you really are
And that is alone.
But it's okay to be alone
because no one is ever truly

alone
purgatory Aug 2014
tell me the story about the angel and the human
tell me how they fell in love and fought for their life
skip the part where the angel fell from grace
how he always tried to do what he believed was right
don't remind me that the human wants to die
or that he can torture himself better than love
this is supposed to be a story about the angel and the human
not once was it mentioned that they were monsters

I guess you know the ending by now
(it's never happy)

— The End —
