It's broken
Shattered
Once more
It needs
Fixing
But I
I can't
Do it myself
I need
Someone else
To help me
A friend?
But I have none
A doctor?
But I don't trust them
Time?
Doesn't it
Heal everything?
Then maybe
It can fix
My broken soul
Shattered

Someone else
To help me
A friend?
But I have none
A doctor?
But I don't trust them
Time?
Doesn't it
Heal everything?
Then maybe
It can fix
My broken soul
Literature
What Remained
Half asleep, I
traced the edges of stars
with my trembling fingertips,
and that shimmering dust
left on the ridges of my fingers
were the only remnants
of my existence
Literature
I Fell Asleep
I fell asleep
In the arms of the enemy.
My worst mistake,
As I let his words get to me.
I left my life
In the hands of a killer.
I trusted my blood
To a man who's a murderer.
I closed my eyes
As he lulled me away.
I loosened my grip
As he began to sway.
I fell asleep
In the arms of the enemy.
I lost my life,
but I lost my life willingly.
Literature
broken bones
I want to write rough and raw and unbearable
the way cigarettes taste at midnight
to a tired atheist knocking on a locked church door
wondering whether to pray or scream
I want to write cold and brutal and honest
like fog-choked dawns on unfamiliar city streets
when the silence presses behind your eyelids
and breathing feels like blasphemy
I want to write like the midnight air that burns the back of your throat
like cold fury and boiling hatred
like the panic that eats into bone marrow
the fear that runs prickling fingers down twisted spines
I want to write of you and me and everything
