In comparison
zxndrew Jun 2020
You deserved a universe but I am only a moon
You are a star while I’m just an asteroid
You’ve been made from stardust while I‘ve been made from sand

Billions
zxndrew Feb 2020
I hate “you’re really sad over 1 person when there’s billions??”
Yes. Yes I am.
I hate that I gave them so much of myself and that I would do it again in a heartbeat.
We wish things were so simple.
It be like that

Soul Windows
zxndrew Mar 2020
They say eyes are the windows to the soul
Brown eyes are like shimmering pools of honey and syrup filling waffles
Blue eyes are like frozen raindrops packed together in a crystal
Green eyes are like untouched forest floors covered in moss
Eyes can tell the best stories
They capture daydreams and play back memories like film
Eyes are the worst liars but also the best tricksters
The eyes are the window to the soul
If you wanna learn someone, look into their eyes
I wonder if you can read the writing in mine

The lifeless pilot
zxndrew Jun 2020
I hate being this person
Piloting this body day in and day out
I’m endlessly boring
I can’t hold a conversation
Why do I feel so loved but so empty
These words are hollow
Shallow promises that I keep writing for myself
Thinking, maybe if I can write a series of words beautiful enough I can win over their affection?
Endlessly naive
I hate who I am
Will I hate who I became?

— The End —
