It's funny that life likes to fall apart  

all at once  

like it's tired of itself just as much  


like it's exhaling for the first time  

a deep breath held in  

sweeping you away in the howl of its wind  


It's funny that when we fall apart  

we try so hard to hang onto the seams  

we tend to tear a deeper ****  

still feigning shock when we bleed  


It's funny how life likes to fall apart  

all at once  

like it's its way of having fun  


like for every "why me?"  

it has to kick you in the *** a little harder  

noting that time only asked to exist as much as you did
