I fear I am already lost to the void
Space expands
At the rate my consciousness collapses
This God in heaven
Knows the terrors in my mind
This God in heaven
Kmows we are only bound
By the mortal coils we tether ourselves to
We pass through existence
Ghosts of a former life
Is this why it feels so familiar
I was asleep before
But am I dreaming now
Time is picking up speed
So is panic
This is not suffering
Only the depths of confusion
Existential dread spreading its wings
Across the sun
We know the dark will come
But not one ******* inkling
Of what it will hold
Does this make everything useless
Does it give everything purpose
I have passed this way before
How long ago was that journey
How sweet the reminiscent death of bliss
I should of begged for ignorance when I could
It is too late now
That serves no purpose
No higher purpose
We know everything is made of atoms
Atoms are made of energy
Energy cannot be created or destroyed
I fear nothing more than death
I crave nothing more than death
Both sides of a coin
Endlessly spinning through space
How do y'all deal with an existential crisis?

it is women
who scrub dry blood
off cobblestone of streets
.
who stood for something here
who died

I miss when trust came easy
I miss life before you

When you ask me
How I like it better
How can I tell you
You'll never be perfect
I'll love you
Through your changing of seasons
This is real love, if you're honest

On occasion,
When feeling particularly human
I sit in the rain
Let the sky come on to me
Lexie Jan 2021
I loved you for you
When you wouldn't
Now I will love me for me
When you won't
Lexie Jan 2021
Walk me to the top
Of the night sky
Let me fall
.
I'm begging
