An Engagement To The Ground
If you remember one thing
That I won’t remember you
That time I punched the door
Should have been your face
Drowning myself
To feel my gills
On a broken deck
Shattering friends
I think about it
And how it felt
But I don’t
I don’t know
I’ve left things in the past
Everything
To rid the coming days of it
But it festers
On every curb
Meant to guide
Channeling
Destroying
Every hope
Of growth
But I don’t
Remember
I couldn’t
And I won’t
I’ve only
That nothing
Held so tight
I’ve forgotten how it feels
Wrenched from my hands
It could have been
But what is mine
No one longs
And I’ve made the leap
To feel my wings
But I guess falling
Is just like flying
For a little while
