in the directionless void
oblivious of self
omniscient serenity
one with nothing

a disembodied hand
with a cold grip
turns my head
"this is the center"

mountains *****
canyons collapse
fauna and flora
erupt from nowhere

tension seeps in
as tranquility cracks
under a new pressure:
to search for center

I want to hike up a mountain
and shout til my lungs hurt
yell out all the pain that
cripples my heart
so I’m reminded that
hearts aren’t made whole
just to be broken

I want to swim to the ocean
dive to the depths of it
till I’m surrounded in blue darkness
and look up to see the light
swiveling through the currents
only so I can feel what it’s like
to want to breathe again

I want to jump off a building
and feel the wind washing my face
and drying the tears that stream down it
just to know that there is still something
that would care enough to wipe away
the physical demonstration
of pain

"You're the one people read books about."



You're *so beautiful.
//
Your eyes strike as if they belong in the sea
//
darling, you're so beautiful to me**
