I walked in the shallows
bare feet in the mush
snakes bite my ankles
stop stop
don’t stop
go
dark air
dark musk
it’s musty and damp
Pray for me
I said it to begin with
bury my face in my hands and cry
god I’m relentless
when the sun sets
and I still cry
blood wrenching screams
teeth gnaw pillows
force to break bed posts
insensitive cures

Selfish, I waited for the space between my teeth to close
Selfless, I left my jaw plated in gold at the foot of your bed
Sinister, I pressed my tongue into the inside of your cheek
Sincerely, I craved the way your eyes hid and forever gave me purpose
Please remember my name,
Always and forever…

Another blissful evening on the water
hands clutched on broken teeth
serrated gums
trying to bite till bloodshed
so that we may cry together again
The water lay still like glass
you squeezed my hand tightly
bones turned to dust
sky burning with sundown
to be alone forever
we promised with forceful regrets
pores filled with salt
mind bloated;postmortem growth
the body at the bottom of the sea
We kissed in sunset’s reflection
your taste was unfamiliar
sub-lingual ghosts
calling away your lips
chemical drenched exchanges of saliva
more salt than the deep
Startled I lifted my eyes to the horizon
land nowhere in sight
our lips begin to part
the sky turns to black
the ocean cold
we drift away
never to be found

I just keep looking but I can’t see anything
I just keep trying to see through the fog in my head
Nothing is there
Nothing at all, I just keep looking for anything
Took 50 pills just to get to sleep again
Took 50 more just to keep my head again
Took 50 one last time to keep from pushing you away
I’m drowning in more chemicals, then the time I have left in days
I’m trying to learn to handle myself so I won’t be left for dead
The worst part is I forget
The worst part is I won’t remember
I can’t see anything
I can’t see anything from before
All my memories are turning to mud
All I want is to be there so I can make more
All I want is to be anything that I was to you before
I remember waking up
I remember falling asleep
I don’t remember if I ever woke up again

We can drink it up
and we'll be dead
Dead holding hands in the mirror
at the end of the hallway
"This will have to come with us"
In the mirror I look at only myself
for an answer
an appropriate response
"Everything will have to come with us"
I'll have to take a drink
waiting is far worse than poison
-------------------------------------------------
I wish we never Left
