i could live without trying to sleep, but being unable to. i really would love to lay on the moon, staring at the stars. i would go by myself. dig myself a grave. i want to bury my beacon of existence. my entire life, is it not there anymore? i don’t really know what happens after we die. my concept of nothing: complete blackness and no sound. but that is something. i don’t really know death, and i don’t really know nothing. i am riveting. i am a poem with a pulse. i am the bottom of a swimming pool. i am loading. i’m sorry, too. i have severe faults. i am the worlds greatest hopeless romantic; i don’t speak; i would take him back in a heartbeat. i am a gigantic bomb; i wear my guts on my sleeve. it’s just tissue. heartbreak is the worst kind of ghost. i think about that all the time. a clear vision of my future, ripped out from under me. i can still hear his voice. it’s melancholic, but in a beautiful way. im going to search for him in everyone, hoping he’ll call me. i will love him until the day i die. and it haunts me.
