they always told me to reach for the stars
to fly high
never look down
they never once told me how much it hurts to fall
I used to enjoy life and its
little enchanted things that made it a good one
now I only see misery
I don’t appreciate flowers
I crush them with my feet
until they disappear
I dig holes in the ground and imagine what it would be like to sleep in them
buried deep underneath the soil
I would switch the weight of life to the weight of dirt
the things that suffocate me
to the small amount of air in my coffin
I don’t want to die
yet, I’m craving it like oxygen
catch me
because
I am falling
