i long for the days back when life was sharp / lately it’s all ashes on astroturf / the pink paper lanterns that light up our space

the ghost of every person i ever loved / that has ever hurt me / lives in my shadow

(a new year--an existential shift)
in a matter of days the stars aligned / acknowledging the void, I was bathed in light / may we free ourselves through the sharing of pain

breathe in, breathe out
extinguish the flame / let go of your dependence / and comfort in pain

I lived and felt a million souls / within the time it took / for you to walk through the door

what i would give to be unremarkable again (7.29.2014)
i've spent my life avoiding life / through analysis, through sleep. / i've hidden myself from myself

that girl
I saw you through the window wearing my shoes. Face looking cynical and wanting to scream, keeping closed. You let nothing out but sorry smoke, how do you expect to be heard? You sit atop your box forever on guard, never leaving what holds which you think does not exist. So go, take your time. I will be watching behind the glass. Wrestle yourself and everyone you know while you pretend you cannot hear the sound.
