"Save your words, save yourself
I won’t have it anymore, I really won’t

Take the ground you walk on and make it solid, because all I can see is eggshells being walked by each regarded step you take, can’t you feel them breaking at your own expense? Do you even care to know?

Your voice is screaming towards the heart of others, but don’t depend on your own self, can’t you see that you’re digging yourself straight to your own grave? I can tell you one thing and one thing only… Are you ready? Everyone is bound to be alone and when you’re dead and gone… Tell me one thing… Who will you have than? Who will have you than?"-amber haiku

Make me nothing but bone

"We walk amongst lost faces
Faded into the shadow cast
Of the people they represent

We men and women,
Even children
Have masks welded to our skeletons

All have felt frigid cold
Crawling, creeping in our skin
Seeping in with the assumptions
Of who we might be,
And probably are

Two seconds of interaction
Come and gone
In a passing glance

We all struggle
To constantly keep
The mask intact"

"You’ve been hanging with the unloved kids, who you never really liked, and you never trusted. But you are so magnetic, you pick up all the pins. Never committing to anything, you don’t pick up the phone when it ring, ring, rings"

Blood on the carpet from a nosebleed in the bathroom from the lines on the book in the car from the years and years of heavy hearts and witless hands. I’d scrub it up but who the fuck am I to try and retract what I’ve done?

When you lived here, it was a city. When you left, it became a town

“Don’t ever think I chose to leave because I wanted to.
I didn’t.
It was more like I needed to.
We were killing each other.”
