years from now

when i’m 6 feet under

and the earth has forgotten my name


when all I am is a collection of bones under a stone

now too faded to tell of my story


when the roots dig into my body

and the insects make nests in my corpse


they will dig into my brain and they will get visions of you

they will see you through my eyes

and love you through my heart


they will feel all that I fel...

say goodbye

Writerperson

1 min read

you know this isn’t working

it’s hurting us both more than it’s helping

i love you i love you i love you

even when you hurt me


i’m here purely for your entertainment

you know that

i know that

but why does it feel like you still love me?

you rip off my wings and tell me to fly

tossing me out into nothingness

laughing as i flail

as i fall


i love you

and i love that you loved me

but y...

In the name of love

When they found Anne she had been alone for 4 months.


Though she didn’t know that.


The first thing my team noticed when we got to the house in the woods was the smell.

The cloying opressivness of it.

Like it was choking you out.


As we approached the run down shack, the snow still clung to their feet.

The cold had been consuming over the past few months.


We weren’t looking for survivors.

sleepy

In the semi-darkness, the pebbles looked like coffee beans.

I’ve been awake for too long


The street lights from the winding road above us send a glow across the water


It glimmers as I rub my eyes.


I need coffee

better yet I need to sleep.


The person I was meeting was supposed to be here an hour ago.


I get up.

They can’t really fault me for leaving at this point can they?


I start walkin...

Beautiful

I could talk for hours on the slope of your mouth and the slight dimple that forms when you smile. I’ll ramble on about the push of your nose and the how the way you tilt your head when you laugh makes me feel like i’m floating. Like I want you to laugh forever. But mostly I love your eyes and how they twinkle when you say something brilliant. I love how when you feel embarrassed your ears turn br...

a quick reminder

Hey,


I love you


Not because of what you can do

what you can make

what you can create


But because you are you


You are more than your abilities


And I love you...

you’re perfect

Writerperson

1 min read

I think when people imagine perfection

they imagine something with no flaws


And maybe that’s the textbook answer

Something that has nothing wrong with it at all


Perfection for me is more acknowledgement of the things you can’t do right

The things you will need help with


The acceptance that not everything will be right

But everything will be just the way it was meant to be


The beauty in ...

Crucifixion

Writerperson

1 min read

Talk to me while I suffocate

Look me in the eyes while I die


I am above you but only physically

Realistically I’m far below

6 feet to be exact


Watch me as the pain carves out my very being

Until I am no longer the person you remember


Go down this path of blood

Look at all the people nailed to slabs of wood


Cruel and unusual torture

For someone supposedly innocent


Watch me as the weigh...

to write

Writerperson

You write to get feelings off your chest

To get a point across

To bring something to light to an issue


That’s what it’s meant for

A tool

To help you get through all the shit we have to go through


But my problem right now

Is that something terrible happened

And i’m struggling to cope

But i can’t seem to get the words out


I can’t decide what to feel, or what point I want to share, and it ...

I kinda missed my chance

Writerperson

I have to tell you now


Even though i don’t know if i’m ready


No time like the present i guess


heh


People always say that now is a gift

And you always looked at it that way


Live in the moment or you haven’t lived at all


Carpe diem

you always said


I always told you to be careful

Or that would end up on your grave

I was joking of course

Ironic


Apparently i’ve never lived

Always s...
