#destructiveness
She is all I will ever need. My bruises and fractures have never healed as fast. In her presence her stare. My flaws and my faults Feeling all so far behind me. The acts of wrath I committed washed away in her gaze. The gauze she wraps around my wrists Like soft silk in her touch. Everything I knew that I was fades away from me like an unsound dream. She patches up my worries and fears With sweet nothings and her smile That never fading smile. She is all I will ever need. What could I do when she is gone? When I curb to the weight Of being saved again and again Without her. She crumbles slowly everyday I can see it. There is no room in this world To be kind. I fall back into my old habits The momentary peace in my life is always disrupted Whenever she walks out of my apartment door. -Kore

When she walks in
SELF-HELP TIPS: chip your tooth on the toilet. find your goldfish’s grave and dance on it. that guy in the trench coat at the party didn’t know anything, but let your paranoia balloon you into a parody of yourself, let your limbs hum off the bone. lie to other people about smoking **** place an excise on weakness: a tearing for every tear. actually, don’t do that. think about your fish going down the drain. a body in orbit, descending, some tide in your stomach rising. don’t do that either. wear a bracelet of crescent dents. sink your chipped tooth into things often. key trench-coat’s car. bite his headlight. remember your arms? they should be back in your skin by now. now, admittedly, doesn’t mean much. dig up your goldfish or the approximate decay and place it back in the bowl you never cleaned. this looks like continuing as usual but isn’t.

Maybe it's in the air now. Maybe there is too much going around. Higher places make people wanna ascend already. The taste on your tongue comes that quickly. Gravity isn't lovely, Most were taught that as kids. Years later, hopping on a ship named Titanic 2. It wasn't for the free ***** It's always the same. People dying for the same mistakes. Shorter life for better times, the equation never changes. Why don't they put their arm out like a soldier and them allow them to not pass? Do they want them to realize? Do they want them to be like the rest? Like pond ****
