It is winter inside my home. I lay under a black cloud, starved, naked, half-cocked to explode, basking in the white rays of computer light, alone. I am an islander. I try to reach you. All I want is you. You whisper my desperate wrists away from yourself and escape me. I am a necromancer; My corpse is Alive among the living; I am a ghost. I am seven dollars spent on B-vitamins, and a well-pitied man. I cut deep into my own mind with words that sink blue, like the stem of thyme sings through my gums and stays until the next morning, I am crying in the bathroom at work, I am listening to my mother go insane, I am crying all day, all day in bed, running back and forth, back and forth, heart beats like; doki-doki-doki-dokidokd... I am a comedian laughing till his own demise, trying to finish the punchline but I am an islander. You don't get back to me. You don't make time for me. You're not here for me, I ask you to just tell me why you love me, and you tell me annoyed, it's time for sleep. It's always time fo I am an Islander. I cry so much these days. I cry cry cry, and I promise I'll get better, I'll be happy, I promise, just get back to me, okay? I'm so sick of crying. I promise. I can smile see? The sun is out, but it's ******* winter, it's always ******* winter, and I can't I don't I am an islander. I am an islander. I am an islander. I am an islander. I'm alone.

"I am an Islander."
It is winter inside my home. I lay under a black cloud, starved, naked, half-cocked to explode, basking in the white rays of computer light, alone. I am an islander. I try to reach you. All I want is you. You whisper my desperate wrists away from yourself and escape me. I am a necromancer; My corpse is Alive among the living; I am a ghost. I am seven dollars spent on B-vitamins, and a well-pitied man. I cut deep into my own mind with words that sink blue, like the stem of thyme sings through my gums and stays until the next morning, I am crying in the bathroom at work, I am listening to my mother go insane, I am crying all day, all day in bed, running back and forth, back and forth, heart beats like; doki-doki-doki-dokidokd... I am a comedian laughing till his own demise, trying to finish the punchline but I am an islander. You don't get back to me. You don't make time for me. You're not here for me, I ask you to just tell me why you love me, and you tell me annoyed, it's time for sleep. It's always time fo I am an Islander. I cry so much these days. I cry cry cry, and I promise I'll get better, I'll be happy, I promise, just get back to me, okay? I'm so sick of crying. I promise. I can smile see? The sun is out, but it's ******* winter, it's always ******* winter, and I can't I don't I am an islander. I am an islander. I am an islander. I am an islander. I'm alone.
