over 6 feet tall
but

tear me apart
and

you couldn't find backbone
with a magnifying glass

ask me how it makes me feel
and i'll probably tell you
what you
want to
hear

as i float lifless
across the room
shallow smile
from ear
to ear

weighed down by invisible things
crumbled under insignificance

chemically dependent
self-abasing

coalescing in
selflessness
and
self-destruction

slide the edge and swish...
there goes the sprouting thread,
red, thin, settled as spots
on my denim not so blue now
on my arms of fainting red,
soon to be white lifless meat
to serve the waiting wild beast

Please Be Mine
My sweetheart don't leave me in this hour of trial
Accept me with all my weaknesses and drawbacks
Please reconsider me to be companion for a while
Allow me to explore your sweet beauty on tracks

Your charm and chrisma make me just intoxicated
In romantic season I want to capture sweet beauty
My sweet love is so clearly stated and loudly dictated
Please be kind and not cruel make me but just free

I want to be in your company to get real satisfaction
Be genrous to extend all your charm and your grace
With lifless heart and lightless eyes I need perfection
Please embrace me my love be mine, be face to face
