Why do we torture ourselves with this shit?
Why do we sit through any of this?
Here I am / there you were
They were once near
Now, no more

Sadness
Sadness is worst of visits.
She drinks all our tea.
Devours all the cupcakes
and never goes away.

Let them be alien
Mouthfuls of mindfulness
invading my senses
inhaling , patience complacence
what is this foul fragrance
unfamiliar, alien
yet verbatim
a sleepless ultimatum
or let them be alien?

Resilient.
I used.
To love.
Things.
And.
People.
But.
I found out.
I didn't need them.
For anything.
I couldn't.
Do.
