i just never saw you go

i just never saw

i just never

i just

i



the blind edge of the blade
refuses to cut my skin
is this you?

for once you didn’t mark my skin

trained to help
those who ye
those who can’t even
help themselves

put a blue leash on me
as i see you
my tail wags

determined to help
just you now
just you

…

i see you laying on the ground
sirens almost making me deaf
put a blue leash on me
it’s not time to leave yet, is it?

you die.

like everyone.
everyone dies.
you’re just like anyone else.

the stars burn out too
but they don’t beg to be remembered.
still, they’re like anyone else.

no one’s remembered.
even if you try.
because our lives only exist to be our own.

because some wise lady told me
‘the universe never ends, it just changes.’

do you remember?
way back?
when you smiled
when you were happy,
my dear, when you were happy.

where did you go?

you were born this day

you opened your eyes this day

you should be proud




come back




come back





happy birthday.

holding hands
braiding hairs
playing catch

that’s what we did!
until one day, she was weird.

…

my body is stained
stained to life
her hands will be forever carved
in my skin

i was a child

a child
mind so rich
but still
only wishes to be held

a father
father of a mind
a mind so rich
but still
he throws the mind away


little does he know he was never held.

manipulate me,
hold me in your arms—
‘i’ve got you,’ you say.

a moment later,
you take my arms,
slice away my flesh,
‘i’ll be back tomorrow.’

please do.
i can’t live without you.
my eyes see nothing,
nothing but you.

your arms, the same that
once cradled me,
have become knives.

the sun rises again,
my warmth
is it gone?
oh well
