i associated you with the colors of the earth,
but all you are is the color of a blackhole.

i thought you were filled with light,
but i guess i was wrong.

you're just a dark hole that
***** all the light from
everything and everyone else
until its all gone inside of
you.

won't you ever learn?
killing others won't
make you able to
breathe any
easier.

it'll just make more space,
until you're left all alone
with the memories of the
people's lights you've
stolen.
****, i thought i loved you.
but you just wanted to steal my light too.

My heart is so broken
I'm so totally worthless
So my heart is for sale
Half-price only

I think it still works
I know the pain
And fear section does

The bit for joy
Is long out of use

And the piece for love
Is quite broken

But it mostly still works
So,
I've got half-price heart for sale
No idea where this one came from

We weren't each other's firsts but if we let that get to us we won't be each other's last.

Beware
of nostalgia,
for it is
a liar;
it bends
the past
like a prism,
casting
colours
onto the shadows
of how
it truly was.

this new beginning is really beautiful
but the temptations aren’t easy
my heart is here
but my mind is out there
reminiscing about the old
times with another goddess
help me escape this trip of thoughts

2am, we’d crawl to the stars
we’d let the galaxies illuminate our scars
you’d undress your temple
and feed mine with the art of passion
my thoughts finally feel vibrant,
my words finally nurture
the walking astrology thou are.
— Elijah & Ofentse Tsie.

Should I?

Okay, fine
I lied
I'm not okay
I haven't been okay
Not for a long time

I don't remember what joy is
Or what it feels like
I thought I had
But then I watched them laughing
And I realized
That what I was feeling was not joy

And then I heard the teasing
The mean words
I saw the treatment they gave me
They think I'm stupid
And so do I
That's when the cuts started

Now I want to cry
No one cares
I don't care
Do I?
Should I?

I want to die
I want to **** myself
I think
I wish, in reality
Should I?

I am not afraid
Of the great lakes

Despite their vastness
Despite their coldness
Despite their power
Despite their deepness

I don't know why
I suppose it's because

I already know my insignificance
I already know I don't matter

My heart is already colder than the water
It cannot hurt me

This pain I feel
Is more powerful than the strongest waves

And I am not afraid of drowning
In their depths
In fact, I hope for it sometimes

So no,
The great lakes don't scare me
This one's not as sad....
