The Art of Falling Apart

Going through it like prayers in the night sky All works are original unless reposted.

Death at Carnal Bliss

My lover and I

Took a trip from the earth

And went on an adventure underneath the covers.

The colors seemed so vivid as we explored the bounds of being

Throwing ourselves over the cliffs, and hoping we land on our feet.

The limbs of our bodies reaching and grabbing for anything to help us on our way down

Falling at such a rate of speed that it’s hard to breathe

Gasping to dull impact of the bumps and scraps

It’s not possible to survive from these heights.

I throw my head back to even the plane and plant my feet downward to brace for impact

My lover still by my side

We reach impact, the ground shifting and breaking as we crash

The opening of our eyes to confirm the impossible

The first breath after death

Now staring into the heavens.

SPENDING TIME

SPINNING OUT TOWARD

A DESIRE THAT WASN’T PURE

BORN BEFORE THE VIRUS WAS CURED

PITCH PERFECT

VIOLINS ON THE FLOOR

FAST FORWARD LININGS ON MY SKULL

TYPE OF DESIGN I COULD AFFORD

FAST FORWARD BANDS OUT

GOT THEY HANDS OUT

LIKE THEY’RE ACKNOWLEDGING THE FÜHRER

REWIND NAS TRACK 6

REWIND DANCE CRAZES

READ MY MIND

FREED MY MIND

FEED MY MIND

MAKES SENSE

JUST LIKE MIRRORS ON THE WALL

JUST LIKE SITTING ON ME

RAW IN MIRRORS SEEN IT ALL

COULD MAKE TWO

A PIECE OF MIND

FLICKING ASH

POURING A HALF

DONT POUR IN A GLASS

POUR IT IN FOAM

THAT’S WHITE LIKE EGGSHELLS IN MY OMELETTE

MY EARLOBES ARE YELLOW LIKE THE YOLK IS RUNNING

MY BRAINS ON DRUGS

I STILL HAVE NO PEACE OF MIND

FUCK

WOOF WOOF DOGS IN THE PLACE

LOOSE TOOTH LOST IN THE FRAY

ROOF LOST IN THE WRAITH

ROOF LOST ON THE WAY

FREEWAY

NO ROZAY

BRUTE FORCE

BRUT CHAMPAGNE

TELL THE FRONT DESK TO CUT NEW KEYS

RESERVED IN THE MERCER FOR TWO YEARS

IN TWO SUITES

TOOK OUT THE BED LIKE ITS FUCK SLEEP

ILL SMACK A BITCH LIKE ITS HOT HANDS

FIRED THE LABEL LIKE FUCK BRANDS

COMFORTABLE LOW NIGGA FUCK XANS

COMFORTABLE SLOW WHO THE FUCK RAN

NOTHING IS SWEET

NOTHING IN TANK SWEET

ITS JUST A TANK P

SALT ON A SLUG

SODA ON SLUGGED TEETH

CHEWING ON NOTHING

UR TWEAKING OR SOMETHING

UR SPEAKING SPEAK UP THEN

UR THINKING UR OVERTHINKING

ONE BLINK AND IM PRECUMMING

THAT COULD TURN EVERY NO ONE

INTO SOMEONE

She Was My Everything

She was my everything.

The stars in the dark when I closed my eyes to sleep,

And if I were to awake in the morning;

she was the shy rays of light that peeked through my window as the sun opened its eyes.

When I finally arose,

She was the coffee in my cup that traveled my veins waking me up more with each sip of her.

She was the first thing that came to mind and the last to leave.

Her lips were the soft winds that danced across my body and made all my hairs stand on end.

Most importantly, she was my heart.

The thing that keeps me going, my love.

My love...my everything

Because she was my heart,

She was my everything.

If I write what I feel, it’s to reduce the fever of feeling.

Tape & Glue Heart

I just watch as my heart falls out my chest and breaks into pieces again

Looking at the pieces on the ground makes me feel a draft in my hollow chest

I become aware of the emptiness in me

The heart doesn’t even look like a heart

It looks like ash, after a body is cremated 

I should have taken better care of it.

I was holding it together with tape and glue

And that obviously won’t do the job this time

So... since my tape and glue heart is in a pile on the floor...

What’s keeping me together?

What’s keeping me alive?

As I fall into a pile on the ground.

Rustle

Rustle my leaves

With your touch

Knock my leaves off

With the power of your breathy kiss

Decorate my leaves

With your pollen

Rip me up from my roots

Take me down with the strength of your storm.

[quotemadness]

Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about those who don’t. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would most likely be worth it.

Paulo Coelho (via quotemadness)

How to stop time:

1. Turn an hourglass on its side 2. Kiss the love of your life 3. Listen to your favorite song 4. Spend time with your closest friends 5. Lie still and listen to the rain

Wash Off

I wash off like I was never there

There will be no stain of me anywhere

Not on your mind

Not in your heart

Not in your life

Nowhere, I will be.

So where should I go

Bleed into others and lose myself

Leave spots of myself in others

Like watercolors

To then, cleanse myself when it rains

And try again

Never truly returning to who I was…

I beg your pardon

For this staining your mind, heart, or life

But like I said

I wash off.
