A Screaming Wind
His voice hurts her ears.
Piercing.
A mouthy earring.
Dangling,
on the edge of being silenced.

Rubber With Bones
Bouncing off walls
I'm a ball,
of stress.

The Meek Are Ready.
She plugged her ears and moved swiftly through the trees.
She thought of the sounds that crickets make
anything to drown out the screams.
Fear began whispering inside of her head.
She wanted to go back but she knew even if
they're alive now in a few moments they'd all
be dead.
Booms, bangs, cries, and shrieks they
should've ran with her instead they called her
a Jesus freak.

Riding The Wave Until It Crashes
Pieces of me.
Pieces of he,
evaporating.
We are not the same, things have changed.
All about me
never about he.
Unblinking, unthinking, rapidly sinking.
Falling into a sea of me
leaving he, far behind.
Pieces of he,
evaporating.
We are not the same, things have changed.
All about me
never about he.
Unblinking, unthinking, rapidly sinking.
Falling into a sea of me
leaving he, far behind.

Exiting The Stage
It was easy not to care.
The hard part was giving a fuck.
Now, there's no blood trail to follow.

No Shore
The hopeful girl is now
the hopeless lady.
Oh the things time can do.

Orbiting Hell
Aging bones have let me know
that pain is forever.
Circles and cycles.
Lots of spinning.
Different situations, same feelings.

Off She Goes.
He yelled.
Her soul left her body and was swimming
in cool water, possibly a lake. Who knows.
He stopped yelling.
Her soul came back, relaxed.
He asked if she had heard a word he said.
She answered with a "huh?"
Again he yelled...

Get The f**k Out Of My Purse
The nasty truth about me is
I'll help anybody.
Mostly those who don't deserve it.
I'm constantly hurt from being kind.
You would think it'd be the opposite.

She's Gonna Need A Quarter To Call Someone Who Cares
She was all in her feelings
He was all in his phone.
Spoken words unheard.
His brain just hummed
like an old dial tone.

The Hoard
I've become a bunch of stuff.
None of it means anything
and isn't worth anything.
How fitting.

The Breeze
I watched the wind take with it a soul.
Where they went I'll never know.
She was just gone.
Where they went I'll never know.
She was just gone.
