love
parsleyboi Dec 2018
love is an ocean
And i fear being fully submerged
i don't know if i can hold my breath for long enough
to see the beauties and the life it has to offer
but do i have really have to breathe when i'm lost underwater with you?

it still isnt easy
parsleyboi Dec 2018
it wasnt easy
passing you in the hallways
it wasnt easy  
watching things go on without me there
it wasnt easy
feeling alone
it wasnt easy doing what i did
but i wasnt going to ruin anything else
it still isnt easy
i see you in the halls
i see you with them being perfectly okay
i'm still alone
no one has ever really stood by me
i wish you had

tw : self harm
parsleyboi Dec 2018
its funny how i find more comfort
in a cold metal blade than you
a pulse can't be trusted
cold steel can't twist my words
unlike everything else
its the one thing i can control

self care
parsleyboi Sep 2020
sometimes self care is
polysporin and bandages
tending to the wounds
of your own self destruction

i miss you
parsleyboi Dec 2018
i miss you i whisper
fog forming in front of me
staring into empty space
that used to be filled
now its a cold slab of concrete
with little details of midnight memories we made
it’s a scene in my mind i can see clearly but could never remake
not alone
i miss you i yell
the hills only yell it back at me
reminding me that i’m alone
that the only thing that will hold me tonight
is an old hoodie we shared
your smell has faded
i miss you... all of you
come back and remind what these warm winter nights were like

i hope you dont fall
parsleyboi Jul 2021
when push comes to shove
i will always crumble under your pressure
filling in the cracks
so you can walk along a smoother path

the rain falls
my breath fogs
everyone is running to find cover
umbrellas popping color into the streets
while i embrace the sky's tears
they hide my own
i think of you and how you can see the sun

No echo
parsleyboi Oct 2020
I climbed the highest mountain I could find
Screamed at the top of my lungs
"I love you"
But nothing echoed back

I'm not lost
parsleyboi Oct 2020
I can't keep running in circles
But there's never a fork in the road
no other way to go but forward
forward always leads back to the same spot
I swear I'll burn my own path straight through the forest
No more circles
No more paths
I'll start a forest fire if I have to

— The End —
