Your smiles hold lipgloss, but no emotion
Your eyes have mascara but no remorse
Your feet wear high heels that turn them black and blue
And the rest of you is black and blue too
Your ears hear lies you speak and you believe them
You say the words you think they want to hear
You smell the blood and don't look at your arms
You touch the mirror cause you don't believe its you
You're a product of the modern age
A symbol of self harm
A god of thin and patron saint of suicide
You worship razor blades
You are a best-seller goodbye note writer
You say 'hello' to your goodbye
You are exactly who you want to be
Your eyes have mascara but no remorse
Your feet wear high heels that turn them black and blue
And the rest of you is black and blue too
Your ears hear lies you speak and you believe them
You say the words you think they want to hear
You smell the blood and don't look at your arms
You touch the mirror cause you don't believe its you
You're a product of the modern age
A symbol of self harm
A god of thin and patron saint of suicide
You worship razor blades
You are a best-seller goodbye note writer
You say 'hello' to your goodbye
You are exactly who you want to be

Letting the Past Die
Letting the Past Die
11/4/18
The past—everyone says to let it go
Despite being its present descendants
And resulting culminations—echoes
Pictures paused, prompting pensive reminiscence
And subsequent self-reflection. It stores
Memories fleeting adrift in oceans
Flooded from the stress of living life coursed
In cutthroat waters, chasing promotions
Or raises—hooked as soon as we taste it
Just once. While revisiting my past, I
Recovered fragments, memories lost in
The growing countless chapters cast aside
Ignored: old friends, faces I'd forgotten
Unclaimed treasures of moments I’d have cherished
Forever had I known what
Literature
Reminders of the past
random moments
taking me back in time
the scent of you
the way you looked at me
watched me walk away
let me go
despite the desire
to hold on forever
transported to that moment
a split second
and everything comes flooding back
the feel of you
against me
the way my heart raced
when you were near
a wound
so suddenly
overwhelmingly
fresh
despite
the years
the others
so much
in between
all it took
was that random moment
and i'm split open
again
Literature
A day never traveled by
Time used to be linear for us
Where Friday to Monday happened in a blink
Yet people twist their times and split away
Now I'm moving to Monday while they're on Friday
I was able to see them after the weekend
Say "Good morning" and "Goodbye"
Before they stepped into another existence
That I cannot venture, no matter my persistence
When I close my eyes
After many days and one final night
Will I be able to catch up?
Is waiting enough?
