Is it okay to accept someone
Who made you feel so rejected?
Is it okay to respect someone
Who made you feel so disrespected?
Is it okay to be strong for someone
Who made you feel so weak?
Is it okay to love someone
Who made you feel so unloved?
Is it okay to still believe in something hopeless?

You're the one who violated my body,
yet somehow,
I'm the one who's always been apologizing for it.

With nothing to know
Voices carry after day
Dogs barking at night

sick sally ran against
natural cures like cannabis
but she agreed to meet
a dealer in the street
and she got hit by an ambulance

Bravery runs in my family.

I remember love
and it's steep cavernous walls
the gripping elation
And unforced smiles.

Comfort falls in the crook
of my arm and my lungs
And steals away my fear.
Her breath tickles my shoulder,
she twitches in her sleep
And smiles like the crack of dawn.

Where love would wear away
now it wears on me,
weighs on my security;
a secret I won't believe.

I climbed with grit and grin
against gravity.
Where I used to fear the climb
now I fear the fall.

a thorn of a broken rose
dug into my skin and i suddenly froze.
the crimson drips down my icy arm,
why is it that beauty can cause such harm?
stained with blood i blossom with the same hues as the rose,
to expose my hurt and represent a flower so beautiful is juxtaposed.
it's ironic that something so beautiful can cause such harm to you.
kind of like a lover, so beautiful; but rips your heart straight out of your chest when they're done with you.

i
drown
in the gasses
of a jovian sea

on the
red spot of
Jupiter
and of the
twin moons
Io is my only
light

she hoves
a pale blue green
sea creature
in the
phosphor

swirling
like a dervish
the world of
a pervasive
and perverse
nature
wears black lillies
and widow's weeds

i
was
in the
past when
i looked up
at the stars
already gone nova

a connect the dots
roadmap
that is
nothing
but

*history
Thinking about perception
and how we process
what we see

As far as I'm concerned
we may as well be
on Jupiter for all we really
know of the universe
even our own planet

Most of history is a lie
