You will be great

It's what you want
I'm disappearing
but you can't see that,
not at your distance

They're saying it was too quick
ribs showing
stomach inverted
skin hanging
but my collar bone is looking perfectly 90's
it's hard to not enjoy the discomfort

stress kills
loneliness kills
my hand is more deft

I'm glad my light is fading
I can drop the pretense of permissible par
I can surpass the darkness into disregard

I will be forgotten
and I am grateful
you will recover
and you will be great

Do not remember me,
actively
Oh, please don't listen

Despite the time
the care
what I thought was generosity

I'm under water now
and back to work soon
it won't be long
and I'll take my way out
