...if my eyes were blunts, they’d be rolled tight with tears. even a sharp mind, can feel so blunt sometimes. emotions rise high— but every crash-out drags me back to earth. sigh… maybe i’ve just always been too down to earth. ..

down to earth
I didn’t pay heaven’s worth for one hell of a ride— for all the Valentine cards, I’m just calling their bluff. What’s carved into stone is too heavy to skip across the rivers of my chest; love sinks deeper than it pretends to float. A carousel of emotions spins; all its horses in place— some only love _horsing around._ Round and round it goes; the painted smile, waiting for the cycle to end, for the spell of tomorrow to break. So I write letters to the future, hopes tangled in snares of my doubts. The tongue—sharp as steel, soft as silk—knows how to give life, and how to **** We cover scars with scars, as the extending arm, just to say we’re armed, clutching too many guns inside our ribs. But how can blessings hold on when your hands stay hidden, when you wear a balaclava over your smile? Harvest comes only from what you’ve planted—patience, honesty, or silence. Soil on the tongue buries every word that could have fed us. So tell me—was heaven’s worth ever meant for one hell of a ride?
