more than anything i’d sit in the greenery while it wraps up to my knees and you’ll speak in unfinished messages and we’ll all glisten with a shining aura and a mask of invincibility. the epic drag of nights past will diminish and bleed out of our pores as we gaze towards the sun and burn white holes into the picture we perceive. there wont be any eerie waves of emptiness because the grass will grow into our bones and flow in our veins while we feel the soothing abrasions from the scalding black top beneath our feet. it’ll warm our souls for eternity and we’ll feel every heavy word enter our minds in different shades of color. we can find contentment in ourselves as we scream for an eternal happiness that fills our lungs with every struggle for air. surviving will become more real and will heal our aching bones and pluck the embedded thorns of regret from our numb eyes. we’ll feel whole. we’ll feel whole. we’ll feel content. we’ll feel whole. we’ll feel real. the sun will radiate an incoherent essence that blesses our eyelids. we’ll bury the bullets that we kept on our nightstands for a rainy day. i’ll feed the flesh of my sorrows to the once rabid creatures who lay in the river banks. they’ll engulf it like it once did to me and i’ll throw my mistakes downstream.
