#disassociate
fighting the disassociation hands reaching out in fog to grab something real head empty, force thought to forefront, can't stop the feeling that I'm nobody at all

Nobody
i already miss flying high above myself, unaware of every **** i should be giving. i plant flowers in my wounds instead, fully aware—I feel them grow from me & bloom. painful, beautiful. and so powerful. I used to find power in deflecting neglecting rejecting & subjecting myself. healing is hurting. healing is hurting. hurt people hurt people. but healed people heal people. and maybe sometimes they’re the same person.

healing is hurting.
i do not think i am in my body no, i know for a fact i am not i have been away far off in some other space some other place there's roses on the floor but they are all withered and the red that once looked like blood has turned to a dull sun the glow from this distance is not beautiful it is sickening maybe i went too far outer space took me away up up up higher and higher on the moon all alone here you're talking to me but i don't know who it is you speak to anymore because i am no longer on the earth i have not had my feet planted firmly on the ground in a long time the sky races by and the weeks go so fast now i am living months and months in the past stuck, or maybe just gone its too odd to explain to you so i will simply say i am away

I disassociate to my "friends" lives scrolling by, I don't need any spliff or fungus to reach Peak apathetic non self congruence. Watching years pass by in seconds Is all the psychedelic room temperature Mental priming for my primate mental That I could ever hope for Before being snapped back out By the cubed carrot reward of Internet interaction Which keeps me salivating and searching For ways to increase the amount of time I don't have to associate with that guy inhabiting my body For a while I can see my problems as goners Being slowly erased from my mind like a magnet over a hard drive Until a kindly panic attack reminds my of My lack of lack of control And the selfless self centered guilt keeps me Wishing I were working instead of living Who could be so audacious As to propose a life out side

Eyes open Phones broken Alarms on Cars warm Show up Clock in Do my work Get paid Clock out Drive home Feel drained Close my eyes Can't express How I feel Do I feel? Sigh Breathe in Breathe out Sleep

disassociation
disassociating ******** consciousness, far from here lost amongst the clouds in the sky as I come down, they follow me fog lays softly upon the ground I walk on

zoned out
Today my world opened up on all ends and all the different dimensions fell in on themselves. Today I discovered what it means to be space, to exist in the realm of reality beyond my past and present. I followed the imprint of echoes and got lost as the sirens swallowed me whole. Today, I was a monster, peeking through holes left by stars into the realities I wish would disappear. Today, I trickled into the atmosphere, wasted on broken glass and the blood from my throat. Today my mask fell off and I was forced to see. All the atoms split so far from each other I could hear the silence between reality and God. Tomorrow I'll try to be better.

What It Means To Be Space
Losing grip of reality, I don’t know what’s next to me, losing touch with the world The one I’m in that slowly flaked till fall, and I was the one who thought not of at all, but a string around the pieces, I’ll say we tried but didn’t push, when we did we didn’t force it, when we did we fell nauseous, when we did we heard noises Same drowned down sound of made up people around.. at least they’re not me.. said she At least my self would never say, what she wanted to say, she wanted to burn Darling wanted to wait her turn.. but turns donnot exist when all you need is a match and a box lies in your top drawer, your pocket, you’re a liar When you say you wait for that heat But let the water darling drowns in stays cool and cold getting colder around her At least.

Voices in the waters
Knuckles white, Bared teeth that clack together with every barked out, growled out insult. Black eyes that show nothing but cold ferocity, And your tears reflected in the churning, opaque surface. Red lips, curled over teeth that are too light, And a tongue that's too sharp. The silver tongued flattery is gone, any sense of mercy or humanity within her words is gone. She's throwing insults, And they're pointed but not full of curse words. Things like, "Your useless daddy issues and ability to use people to give you a sense of self worth makes you even more pathetic than I previously had thought," Or "How emotionally unstable and black heart'd do you have to be to lie through your teeth and attempt at wounding people worlds smarter than you are, you sick freak?" Something else about crying wolf and worthless worms. She analyzes people to dehumanize them. You're sickened by her words and ability to be so cruel, And the hot rage boiling inside her makes you feel queasy, So you slam the door and lock it, Locking her away. She wasn't talking about you, But she is you, And that scares you more Than you're sickened by the people she was talking about.

Beasts and Disassociation
Saying goodbye to Holly the best neighbor two kids trying to move up in the world could have. goodbye to four years in the same house I spent so much time in as a kid, learning what life is and what mistakes are. goodbye to a neighborhood I watched turn fear into love, even though I still had to lock my doors at night. goodbye to the apartment I came home to after a full day of classes, a long shift at the bar, a session in the painting studio. goodbye to a house that belonged in it's place since it was built over a century ago. goodbye to a home the home that comforted me as I faced the toughest part of growing up the home that nearly drove us apart but in reality it had kept us together.

The Next Chapter
With hands around my neck I smiled as he pulled up my dress year after year the taste of fear became a flavor of pain I knew best Laid me down turned me around held my breath as he left whispers down my back but I'd already drifted away behind closed eyes my mind kept trying to disassociate   Snapped back to reality with a slap on the *** I giggled as he did these things because something about it filled in the cracks The lace he'd given me hid a stretch of scars distracted from my arms and I knew he'd say "You look good in black" wearing lingerie that he could unsnap just like he asked

*Bitter taste in my mouth A metallic tangy taste He shoved in his engorged enlarged shaft as far as it'd go He ***** & stole away my innocents offering wine I find this sacrilegious more I guess like blasphemy after all he is a Deacon Preaching lies more to me then our whole congregation Sinners have to pay to get into heaven Guess mines is my virginity Age 10 going on 11 I'm now like *** the sacrificial wine*** I've been past round Who'd want to go to heaven anyways If this is the price to pay* All I can remember is; Us surviving victim, get sour grapes ***I'm floating out of myself as I think of them*** *I can see all that's happening until I crash into myself Back to my torturous reality I wait until he pulls out just enough to bite down hard with all my strength........* *Sour grapes like sour hearts, but So unlike sour hearts... You can still make wine outta Sour grapes* Blood doesn't taste so sweet! Copyright © Ayeshah K.C.L.N 1977-Present   All right reserved
