You are beautiful, you don't deserve me- what happened? I don't ever remember being this sad
For My Death, Long in Coming
Hello
I am sorry to take your motherly hand
You are beautiful, you don't deserve me
Heads like mine are bound to go extinct
Yes, soon
Formaldehyde, calla lilies burdening my church's altar
My father's shoulders defeated in the pew
But I want you to know this
-when i was eleven i stood in the breathing emerald jungle and hung my toes over the edge. below, a punchbowl of sunreflected blue. i took a deep breath, and jumped.
the water felt like featherlight uppercuts.-
It's alright, I understand
For such a life, such colors, such laughing, I owe the universe some marrow
This is payback, only.
