sunken eyes i watched them in silent rooms. breathing people nothing but the vents breathing their moan of churning gears brittle bones i arose to black and cream elixir the orange sun peaking over black branch silhouette a sight for tired eyes helpless hands gripping the red glazed mug emanating peaceful warmth unlike the heat of the words burned in the back of my mind 6:12 a.m trying not to think deep breaths sips of coffee remembering how to forget seems to be the hardest thing after all he who made living a lot less terrifying seems abstract in my mind now not solid, not there, maybe he was a daydream after all craving sustenance the only thing that is for sure is the orange fading into pink, fading into blue like the only thing i’ve ever know, the bottom of the red mug peaks at me still warm in my hands, but not like your reminiscent hand

sustenance (red mug sunrise)
sunken eyes i watched them in silent rooms. breathing people nothing but the vents breathing their moan of churning gears brittle bones i arose to black and cream elixir the orange sun peaking over black branch silhouette a sight for tired eyes helpless hands gripping the red glazed mug emanating peaceful warmth unlike the heat of the words burned in the back of my mind 6:12 a.m trying not to think deep breaths sips of coffee remembering how to forget seems to be the hardest thing after all he who made living a lot less terrifying seems abstract in my mind now not solid, not there, maybe he was a daydream after all craving sustenance the only thing that is for sure is the orange fading into pink, fading into blue like the only thing i’ve ever know, the bottom of the red mug peaks at me still warm in my hands, but not like your reminiscent hand
