If silence could echo, it would’ve been you; never much one to talk. I’d be the last one for you to go to but I would’ve listened as we sat or took a walk. You pose as granite, another lonely planet Orbiting all that glows, but ****** in a void. So sure that nobody knows, but slipping out your signs like Freud. Circling the world as a satellite, but you don’t want to man it. No one should ever lose their sight, it’s so easy to lose a lonely planet. I’ve been thinking of what you’d know and the places you wanted to go and all of the life that you’d grow, we already lost Pluto. It’s not like we planned it, another lonely planet. Spinning out of control, praying for gravity, you discovered a black hole no one else could see. With edges that reach such height, and no one to sand it. No one should ever lose their sight, it’s so easy to lose a lonely planet. No returning, fuel burning, I think we’ve lost a piston. You’re missing seasons, you’ve got your reasons so please list them; why you want to leave our solar system. Maybe you’re pushed but there’s still a pull you may lack the will to be sustainable. I wish your oxygen levels would stay at full. You don’t need to live in a lull. Orbiting all that glows, but ****** in a void. You were right; nobody knows, why you chose to stay forever a boy. Circling the world as a satellite, but you don’t want to man it. I can’t blame you for losing the fight but we blame ourselves for losing a lonely planet.

People feel and write I write to feel But unalive wounds Never seem to heal.

Unalive Wounds
People surround me They have a different energy than me They drain me They make me mentally exhausted Too exhausted To the point where I want to lock myself up To the point where I don't want to wake up I'd rather rot in my bed Just to not be called "Special Ed" Just to not feel pain Again So I don't get hurt again So I don't get shamed again So I don't get drained again So I don't have to be anymore insecure So I can feel secure While rotting away in my bed While the depressive thoughts evacuate my head

Unalive
We sat together. We drank to our youth and feasted on the present. What once wasn't, rapidly grew to form a future keen. We sat together. We counted each one. Silently wishing permanence into a band. What once brought tomorrow, now only fades into the mournings of yesterdays. We sit together... But our hearts are wedged far apart. What once flourished... Now only ***** weakly in stale winds, conscious but unalive.
