all we are is movement

all our thoughts are fluid

I’m shoving pepper into my mouth
To ease the doubt

I'm feeling plagued
eh. whatever

my heart reveals it’s filmy halo
from underneath a blanket of snow
what blooms for now
you will never know
for you buried me here
laid me soft and slow
to rot and reprieve
i will not cease to glow
i have made this pit you dug
my home
my home
my home
this is about my trauma. it's been difficult trying to overcome the abuse i have endured but i've finally reached a place where i feel at peace with it. so, take it.

A hole had opened up in the universe
It’s guts spilling out and piling around
Reach down and hold the contents in your palm
Take a bite
The warmth keeps you calm
Although a terrifying sight to see
You might find solace somewhere underneath
i woke up @ 2am and wrote this, im not entirely sure of what it means

7pm
when my heart is heaviest in my chest

and against the bones of my rib cage i can feel it weighing, it rests

the trees stand tallest

and the sky glows greenest

i never was alone

there’s a little bit of home that i carry

wherever i may go
:-)

I will lay my hands on you as you have laid yours on me
I will bury my fingers deep into your flesh and pick apart your bones
I will come into your house, your home
And pelt you with stones
I will make you bleed
The desire to harm you
To see your face contort in pain
Isn’t a common thing for me
How does it feel?
a letter to my abuser

Everything was drenched in color
So saturated
Like an old tv
I could pick out the pixels in the sky
It couldn’t decide
Whether it was blue yellow or green

So it would seem

The world had been made for me

a trip to the waterpark

stand under a cluster of metal limbs

A giant bucket filled to its brim

finally tips

It cascades unelegantly down on our tiny heads

like the hand of god

Holding us down and pulling us up

A cleanse-

It felt good
