Intermission:

If I ever held out my hand again,

Would you dare grab it?

Because all we really have in the end,

Is who we pretend to be in a hit or miss,

A hit or miss of decisions.

Decisions that decide our intermissions.

When we are done with the world

And when we wish to continue.

This is my intermission

And I don't think I want to

Come back on stage.

~J.K.M.

Suffocating On Dry Land:

I have a strong tendency,

To continuously rip out my own heart

Because every time

I feel it beating in my chest again,

I want to watch it bleed

Like you watched me.

I want to leave it on the fucking floor

And watch it struggle to breathe.

And maybe then I'll understand

Why you watched me suffocate

On dry land

With a smile on those lips.

~J.K.M.
