    sitting alone
    
aside a headstone
    
aside your heart

    where i used to fight dark
    
who used to make me feel
    so far, so high
    invincible to say the least
    and it was us
    floating
    falling
    skipping on ice
    lying on rice
    soaking my fears
    loving you 
    even though
    you’re no longer here

    two dead yet one alive

    Hallucinations aren’t always out of the ordinary. How do we know we’re not hallucinating if everything seems plausible?

    I loved everything to anything to everyone who surrounded him. He was perfect. A delusion with a sweet melancholy taste. He was crazy, but he was my crazy and inside, everything felt right.

    drunk on wine
    highs
    life as it passes by
    wondering why good turns bad
    why bad turns good
    how things slip
    from your grasp
    dangle through cracks
    leaving you endlessly sad
    but subconsciously
    yourself

    cheap wine

    It was love. It was lust. It was just between us. The passion, the desire, the fire. The way we held on in so little time and his eyes when he saw me for the first time.

    and we’re back
    here
    where i fight hunger
    for a drink
    to feel something
    otherworldly
    than the deathly reality
    i’m drowning in

    we flew
    with waves
    between days
    and fought
    in a play of our own
     
    we were
    but weren’t
    stuck in a motion
    of a god forsaken explosion
    with blood
    curves
    cuts we weren’t sure of
     
    we frolicked
    for our own sanity
    to stray from sadness
    lie in a twist of consummation
     
    and then we jumped
    caught ourselves off guard
    with a hope of serenity
    as we stood in the grasp of hell
    wondering how we fell
    how things twist
    without an able-body
    with things we used to think
    were lovely

    standing in the ocean

    i sat enthralled
    in blood
    in gore
    in you
    with words
    i couldn’t find
    in hot
    steamy
    slime
    i twirled
    in lies
    in a fineness 
    so thin
    so impeccable
    i tried
    i strived
    i slammed
    but i survived
    with a haze
    slight craziness
    and a hunger
    for something 
    i never seemed
    to know
    for love
    for this
    for his arms
    his twine
    a lonely grip
    i thought i knew
    and there we twirled
    alone
    yet under a spotlight
    so bright
    we couldn’t seem to land
    or gravitate
    from edges
    from the ocean
    from ourselves
    the familiar smell
    we used to call
    we used feel
    to used to be
    we used to use
    when we weren’t we

    dancing with our clothes on

    All of your fears and thoughts were mine, you were so scared but it was beyond divine.

    i wondered
    if things could feel
    the way they did
    before nostalgia hit
    before life felt
    like this
    when i wasn’t a piece
    lost in the sand
    in a desert of coldness
    with patches of fire
    when temptation was simple
    when life wasn’t passion
    before we
    fell into a pit
    of nothingness

    it’s nothing
