i filled my days with you. i knew, in the headiness of it all, that meant i would be grey at your absence. now, in the bleakness of dreary spring, when showers are meant to make blossoms grow, we've been plucked apart. and my resentment shouldn't grow in blossoms' place but i can't seem to scrub the desire from my heart.

i had to smash my fist against the rigid marble that held our weight and our scotch before your attention was drawn away from all of your own hurt that was radiating from you like a dying sun. Pig Pen and Lucy, but the doctor is not in. a sister and a mothers' sins aren't all that hold you in contempt. i wasn't made to fix all of you and you confessing on my behalf won't bring either of us closer to healing.

i killed myself today. another of my lives come and gone in the blink of an eye. i was wild and out of control, nothing i said could calm me. i held my head under a pillow until i felt myself still. these little deaths happen so quickly. i'm efficient when i go in for the kill.

How many people can I be perfect for?
I thought it was one but then another and
Another and said the same and eventually
My mind numbed to what perfect could mean.
I don't think I can be perfect for anyone.
I'm certainly not perfect for everyone so
How am I perfect for the ones that I've found?
And how can I be honest and not let them down?

I saw clouds on the horizon and thought it was rain.
Weeks came and went, but the rain never did.
The clouds only darkened and drew closer.
I knew there was disaster in them but
I didn't know it was a forest fire.

Tabula rasa.
Erased.
Expunged.
Or at least I tried.
I cried when someone pointed out my
Mismatched socks and when shuffle
Decided it was time for that one song.
I don't know why I weep when I hear
Certain melodies.
Wet.
I won't look at a guitar the same way
Nor can I look east without a pang.
I can't even touch myself the same,
Even if he calls my name.
Dirt.
From 100 to 0 real quick,
I took away your voice, your face,
Your sickly sweet distance.
But footsteps in mud linger longer
Than the walker, and I am nothing if not
Wet dirt.

You filled me to brimming.
I'm not surprised I am
Hollowed at our parting.
But I knew it was coming.
Did you?

last week i went 2 days without drinking any water at all. 70% to 60% to half water, half blood. it took another body with 70% water to raise my glass to the desert dunes guarding my gumless bones. water consumed by water, i felt reunification.
