another reason to live tomorrow, is whats killing you faster
though softly at first, to not alert you of the upcoming disaster
a rupture in your lungs u didnt feel
for ur heart suffered a much similar deal
(years before)
it must’ve been a sign
the path for your future laid out in cracked bathroom tile
a rather crude design
blood seeping through its imperfections, no longer white
deep red Kintsugi
just a grey excuse for skin plastered on a withering statue
it doesnt need to make sense
how it turned out this way
a steady decay. atleast its tidy
you could have seen it coming but really it was up to me
up to me?
i’d let it happen so easily
kind of silly how dreams slip like feet on a puddle of water
turned to faded pink after less than a week
by now their skin was muted lavender
a colour one could only hope to be preserved in
unfairly buried in blue-ish purple
just toss them in a lake
bleed with the sea and blend with the agony
float atop coral reefs and lay gracefully
the least you can get is a movie-scene ending
on my knees and i can just imagine what you see
perspectives different
you’re weird but not like me
oh so different
living differently oh so differently
your freckles are what god should have given me
mine are what were mistakenly plastered on as if by a muddy stake
if you were god how would you tattoo me?
(stop standing there and just hold me)
you hold no mercy in how you watch me
if i could control how i see my eyes would be stripped long from my body
we are secretly the same
studying the same people (eachother)
tricked to seeing differently
you dont have to loathe-
me
sent to a ceremony of alien-skinned guests regarding you boredly
send me back up, cast a ray of light
home is where i want to go tonight
not here, for another lasting second, not one more dirty glance
where my true self will dwindle away. till im properly taken away.
