the time that i tried

one summer

i was alone. 

alone in mind, body, and soul.

in a house full of emptiness, and a bed of deceit.

that summer i was alone,

i had a thought.

to express the pain that those close

had wrought.

i thought to myself... "give it a try."

so i leaned over the abyss and let my soul cry.

the ocean dawned below me as i filled it with my pain,

and as i emptied my stomach

everything began to rain.

i rained in joy, at the loss of my body

i rained in joy, at the catharsis of pain.

but most of all, i rained,

at the tremendous pain.


so summer ended, and so did my release

we went back to before, my weight's decrease,


the purpose of this story is to let it be known,

that it's back with a vengeance, my resolve having grown.
