let's sail,
Find strength in the wind.
Dream on the ship, I want to be carefree.

We could soar in their disbelief
but I already know you're not the one.
Why am I wasting my time,
Again.
I'm being lazy in love,
far too impatient..

don't ask me about the future
I don't plan on making it that far

I don't wish for tomorrow
I left my courage inside yesterday

I lied
I don't think I'll be here next month
I lied
I said it's fine
really
I'm so terrified
starting to cry
let me take it all back

don't make me think so far
the vast
corruption of my mind

I'm not making any plans

everything is so temporary
feels like
I never existed

Close your eyes
Take a step
Let it go
Let it flow
Just let go
As you fall
From the cliff
You are no longer stiff
For the ocean will catch your fall
As you end it all
Listen to the sea
As you forget to breathe
And just let go
Let the emotions flow away
They won't be there the next day
When you wash away
To somewhere better
Somewhere unknown

the Terror
do you remember being
picked up like you weighed
nothing because you did not?
the sizzle of peroxide
on your knees?
do you remember
the wet heat of your mother?
her smell?
can you feel her hand
wrapped around yours still?
did you know her?
does she know you?

She prays to
God
about me every
night
before she falls
asleep.
