“I Understand. That’s The Trouble. I Understand. I’ll Understand All The Time. All Day And All

“I understand. That’s the trouble. I understand. I’ll understand all the time. All day and all night. Especially all night. I’ll understand. You don’t have to worry about that.”

— Ernest Hemingway

“i feel safe with you”

are the last words she uttered to me
before i’d finally embraced
the void.

I can be your guardian angel. I can be
your solace, a reprieve from it all;
either that or
your ruin in waiting —
what are you waiting for?

i will tell you, my impatient heart —

you are nothing but a rampant disaster,
committing atrocities against the people
you love; do you really love them?

you are nothing but a monster
wearing human skin,
deceitful, dishonest, and crude.

I am nothing but a wandering dreamer,
a soul floating in limbo,
my heart lost in the fields,
looking for a shepherd.

"i feel safe with you."

d.b.a

Stand, straightening bones

Stretch, cough, shake my dream dust coat

New day to make most.

that you were dying.

Untitled 15/7/24

Writing and rewriting the same lines,

Over and over again,

Thinking, That’s awful, this is awful, why can’t you write something good for once.

For once? Something good for once?

If it’s as awful as you’re saying it is,

Why do(es) literally everybody you know who you show it to,

And even people you “know” superficially via social media and one shared interest,

Praise it constantly?

And why do even the most unpolished of first drafts receive that same praise?

Maybe you’re actually a decent author & poet?

Ever think of that?

finally i had put my walls up,

after it was shattered by millions

And there you go again,

breaking them like it was nothing,

and leaving me in pieces,

again.
