#Death #Life #Love #Sleep
There is poetry in nature better left to be spoken wordlessly by the breeze
I spend my nights wishing on every star in the sky that you are alive and well
I thought I could drink you away but I had to stop being so drunk on you first
I get my silence in five minute doses before the plane overhead brings me back to earth
My heart was paper now folded six times over to make it harder to tear I only hope that
I write sharp words with a sharper knife on page after page of what might as well be the skin of my back
Under the weight of life I forget how to breathe and I feel suffocated I hesitantly make peace with the world
There seems to be a drought in my… but who knows if it is the cause or the result of the war raging within me
Everyone sees god in a different light but I was born without eyes
Loving you was never sweet like the taste of vanilla the way I thought it was supposed to be It was more like
Life is an uphill struggle Nothing comes easy and only hard work pays off I don’t like hard work was my 5 word protest
I see no joyous rebirth in spring for autumn will bring another death I see no joyous rebirth
So much time passes without feeling a single thing that I think I would give anything
The road is long and winding like nothing you can imagine Too many off ramps to count but too few in hindsight
The hands of this watch haven’t moved since the last time you did and I’m not sure if I’m ready to hear the ticking
