thorns of a cloudgazer

thorns of a cloudgazer

this year I think I'll put bandaids on my birthday cake - whether it means I'm irreparable or the opposite it left up to the rest of the world.

taking one step alone is enough to change the shading a bit. if I run too fast up the stairs, I'll trip. I'd wish on candy wrappers, but they remind me of you, and -

I've been under the delusion that I've been running from you, when in reality I've never let go. I don't even know what it is that my fingers cannot be pried off of.

certainly not rose thorns..

..

want to speak about the legends that have happened, about the flukes that have been propelling me forward. our music stinks of decay, of beautiful death, of fantasies woven so closely with my arteries that they've locked in with them.

i'll hold my tongue, you're probably gatekeeping yours.. let the skies you see be full of promise, and my heart to you in a cloudy day.
