Literature Text
Plants grew out of
the dirt in our bruised lungs and
up through our fractured rib cages -
their unfurling leaves
peered out into the sunlight
And those thick roots sucked up all
the nutrients that were left,
leaving only soot
that ran through our fingers
at the first sign of
danger
(That's why we've become
the way we are now,
I guess)
But sometimes I
like to think that
our rib cages are made of weeds-
dandelions entangled together, or
tendrils wrapped around bones
and resilient when crushed,
they'll scream, "Don't you
dare give up now.
Don't you
dare.
We will protect
this heart,
we swear."
Literature
The way out
Death feels
So appealing
So seductive
The end
Of my pain
The void
Of oblivion
My salvation
My only way
Out of this
This world
Of misery
Literature
Do Not Wake Me
Do not wake me from this sleep
For it would disrupt my dream
And do not force me to face
The inevitability of reality
For in this dream I am safe
My fears and stress have been erased
Everything is here as it should
Even the horror has been replaced
Waking me would break the glass
Of the mirror I have forged
That holds this false reality
Of the perfection that I dream
So with a hint of a smile
Resting on my sleeping face
I ask you from behind closed eyes
To not wake me from this dream
Literature
a good love poem to get you in the mood
there is a sadness that lives within
liars. i told you once that you meant
more to me than myself, but if i were
truly your friend i would tell you to
leave.
i want you to slip from the bed
in the middle of the night while i
am still asleep. i want you to fight
the urge to touch me and trust
that i am honest.
i want you to find your things and
fill your bags with everything that is you
in that place until it is nearly
empty, and
quietly,
i want you to fucking leave.
without explanation or one more
ultimatum that you are so fond
of, put that car in drive and don't
you dare come back.
find a studio that
you can afford for two hundred
