clear the way.
go before me
clear the way
so I can see a path forward
let my knees bear witness of my faith
humble and frail I come
strong and renewed I leave
teach me a new song
on instruments only you hear
teach me to sing
as softly as I need to
teeach me to wail
as loudly as I need to
so that I can be heard by you
clear the way
for your joy
so that I may know
troubles a short while
my grief, I cling to
but your promises
your path
your ways
show me.
so that I may
love longer.

thoughts in yin.
do to them what they did to you
just so you can see how it feels
become careless
and cruel to the world.
don’t answer texts back
or any calls at all.
no one shall receive help.
lie to others
so that you can feel better
about all of the times
the truth was withheld from you.
betray your friends.
sacrifice their character
and reputation so that you can “become”.
you are better
and more deserving, so take.
steal it if you have to.
forget important dates.
crash them
when you remember.
wear that mask
until it cracks.
then steal another one
to wear in glory.
when you’re done
remember how they treated you.
remember how they deserved it all
for never thinking twice
about if you deserved it at all.
fake forgiveness
and never forget.
Plot their sabotage
and throw their plans
of being happy
into the garbage
the same way
they threw you away to be discarded.
stomp on them.
keep going.
a little more.
Yes, further.
Now choke them,
and dare them to scream.
sit in their ashes
and pretend you were burned.
it was a fire,
it was a dream.
a hell to sit in alone,
i hope it gets hard
for them to breathe.
throw daggers at their side
and watch them bend over in mercy
be cruel.
watch them beg.
the dirty fools,
I always pitied.
never again.
to bury you.
and that’s the thing I remember you with a fondness that grief can’t bury any deeper to let you go, to bury you with that grief is a suffer...

not even the moon can blot out the sun. both know their place. if I am one and you are the other then no harm done. both shine in darkness....

In my memories of way back when, from time to time, I remember what it’s like to be alive. We ran together in circles and cycles. We forgot...
