I want you to know that I am moving slowly.

I want you to see the person that I truly should be.

But now that I have revealed myself,

I have been stripped of all of my wealth.

Who have I let you destroy?

I found beauty in your body.

I built a shelter from your lies.

How could I have loved you

When that shelter died? Oh, how did I survive?

Let’s not forget the best part.

Tell them how I died.

A brick to the skull

My vision going dull.

I can’t see-

I can’t reimagine the days we forgot who we’d solely be.

I have forgotten.

I have allowed it to get the best of me.

I still imagine I am somewhere I could never be.

Forget my reasons and forget my lines.

Forget the pleasant seasons and I won’t doubt your lies.

Forget all of my poetry,

And close your eyes so that I can be free!

Your metaphors make me confused, and leave me feeling empty.
I read this like a cup turned over on it's side in the middle of a lawn somewhere, motionless as the world happens around it. All of it's contents gone into the earth. My contents.
Cheer up buddy.
