We don’t talk anymore; I
Pretend it’s mutual but
It was you who decided.
Perhaps I wasn’t good for
You, though I always tried to
Be good to you. For the best,
I tell myself, while the you
Shaped hole in me aches, empty
Tag: emptiness
The Sun Thief
The membranous sky
Steals the heat I need
I wilt and perish
Center
Everything changes
Except me. I sit,
And watch, am unmoved
My Weakness
If there is a beautiful
Woman to watch me, I am
Unbeatable. But what can
I do in the dark, alone?
Fractional Existence
I wander this world in
Search of who I was, who I
Could have been, my missing piece.
Monotony
Every day is just like the
Last; desperation flashes
Through me; I swallow, again.
The Last
I’ve lived too long, and
Seen too much. My bones
Ache for rest and peace
Acceleration
Waiting to hit rock bottom,
I continued to fall, through
Infinite space, faster still
Methadone
This is only a
Poor substitute for
A real, vital life
