Slipping away from lips
Pushing syllables down devices
Listen now for repetition
Tires the sobbing minds that consume hope.
Ripping through Kleenex boxes
Craving for the transformation
Of the environment's filters
Stick out from the extroverts.
Relapsing into treasured and agonizing
Scenarios, collapsing to the ground
Buried beneath false pipes
And dripping water fountains.
Analysis of health states
That the only wellness left
Is spirituality, eroding
False beaches, pretending to be needed.
Pondering the journeys missed
How "life is so sad"
When gravity grasps you, as you clip
Your toenails, he watches strangers stare.
Indescribable malice captivates breath
From the inside, puncturing pitiful intestines
As you think about him
Thinking about anything but you.

Tires the sobbing minds that consume hope.

Craving for the transformation

Stick out from the extroverts.
Relapsing into treasured and agonizing

Buried beneath false pipes
And dripping water fountains.

That the only wellness left
Is spirituality, eroding
False beaches, pretending to be needed.
Pondering the journeys missed
How "life is so sad"
When gravity grasps you, as you clip
Your toenails, he watches strangers stare.
Indescribable malice captivates breath
From the inside, puncturing pitiful intestines
As you think about him
Thinking about anything but you.
