trying to smoke from an empty pipe, and wipe the hurricanes from my eyes. if you were here i would wipe yours too, and try to purify the water for you, to drink until you’re no longer thirsty, then flood the earth into a giant sea, and float on our backs as the current rocks us, and we feel no more need to hold on. at all.
the tap water at this new place tastes weird, but i’m so hopeful to get out of here, i need to put my brain and hands to good use, i need somebody to wake me up.
‘cause i’ve been sleeping with my eyes wide open, i’ve been cutting up my art and my skin, i’ve been feeling like i have no purpose, searching desperately for a reason to not die.
(i am longing too be loved. i’m so lonely what’s the purpose, of continuing to hold on, when it feels so unreciprocal?)
do you know, you’re the reason, that i don’t cease to exist? it’s too bad, so many people i love, are so fucking brainwashed.

because you can do what you want to, you don’t harness a sense of time. does it feel like we’re growing or staying put? i find i just wanna die.
close my eyes to see what i’m thinking, taking pictures inside my mind. opening up my veins to, see the red sea swelling in tides.
ceremonial, everything feels. like a fucking joke. like suicide pact.
shake it off i’m going in circles, burning my skin off with acid. what’s another lifelong illness? what’s my future other than pain? who’s bed am i falling asleep in? who’s blood is between my legs? he doesn’t love me and i don’t expect it, but i didn’t think it would all end this way.
