I hate death
It seems like such a shame...
all that laughter, conversation,
hanging out.
Now he's just lowered into the ground
like a basket of rotting bread.
I hate death.
He's so selfish.
all that laughter, conversation,
hanging out.
Now he's just lowered into the ground
like a basket of rotting bread.
I hate death.
He's so selfish.

Trying Not to Break
Been trying not to break.
Trying to be strong.
Trying not to cut.
Just to end it all.
Trying to be strong.
Trying not to cut.
Just to end it all.

Petty
The arsons
Of your
Mind
Slit
Their petty
Wrists
Setting the
Room
Ablaze-
Smiling;
Upended.

Dying wish
Promise did I,
love for you eternal
death smiled, you lie
You slept with him
And I died.
love for you eternal
death smiled, you lie
You slept with him
And I died.

Morning depression
Wake up, insides lurching.
Dread, fear, depression, despair.
Why?
Remember, you are here now, it's ok.
It's just hit me, that's probably "why" -
because I was there once.
Dread, fear, depression, despair.
Why?
Remember, you are here now, it's ok.
It's just hit me, that's probably "why" -
because I was there once.

WHY?
Your suicide
Has condemned
My mind to
Asking,"WHY?"
In the cyclotron
Of my mind
The remuneration
Of this question
Will haunt my nights
Till the day I die
WHY?

Mercy
Free me
Remove these invisible chains
Show mercy
Take this visible pain away
Resurrect me
Grant me life once again
Hurry
Before the darkness consumes me
Remove these invisible chains
Show mercy
Take this visible pain away
Resurrect me
Grant me life once again
Hurry
Before the darkness consumes me

Gotten me. Bring. it. On.

off grid
along with my tilting insides
currency, clothes, napkin poetry
ive abandoned all my chattels,
at a shores’ edge
wandering an atrium of vibrant
stillness-
dismembered..nakedly swaying
i.... a summation of vulnerability
