Hear the whispers of the wind,
The rustling of the leaves,
As they dance on the branches,
The sweet chirping of the birds  
The gentle beat of the waves on the soft sand,
The silent cry of my soul,
I LOVE YOU
21/12/2024
Perhaps we weren't
Fated to much more
Than disaster
Anyway
Such a lovely trainwreck...
I float
Between destinations
My physical body
Worn down and aching
My spiritual side nonexistent
I fear they’ve crossed over
And have left me here
An empty bag of bones
Arriving at your door.
life goes stale
misery circles in
black and grays
replacing the vividness
smells wafting from the fridge  
i just know rotten milk awaits
no need for more breaths
no need to keep score
what’s done is done
I don’t want to hurt anymore
and it seems
as the leaves begin to hit the ground
my hopes and tears accompany them
for this is the fall of me
watch the last of my life fade out with
the crisp cool autumn colors
I lit his birthday candle
with the same lighter I use
to burn my thighs
my blood turns cold
at the realization
my heart yearns
for yours
You became the very thing
That drove your mother to madness
I post these poems online

Not because they're good

But to keep a memoir of my thoughts

To look back on and be understood
as long as my living presence lingers on this planet my brain will be misunderstood
