reminder

Useless
Fucking useless
Even more so
Than I care
To admit

This was
All it took

Reminder

This is
Your chance
Gloat all
You want
While you

Can

stretch

That was it
The last thing
Now I’m at zero
With infinity before me

Once again
I’ve stretched myself
Too thin
Now that I’m here
I’m not sure where
To begin
Or where it ends

Reason never seems
To sleep as often
As it dreams

decency

“Figured I’d let you know…
Since you already do
Sorry you didn’t hear it from me…
But this should be good enough for you”

Since then I’ve been here
Waiting the whole time
Telling myself to forget
But now
I thank you for telling me
Now I can go on dying

Am I in error?
Did I miss your point?
That was it, right?

If this is decency
I don’t want to know
What cruelty is

expectation

Is this the way
It’s supposed to be?
What I was expecting
Always seemed better than this

And now the truth comes out
No one lies anymore
At least those who can see
Letting go doesn’t seem so easy
When you don’t have time for it

Corporate thinking has its hooks in
And it’s slowly pulling
Leaving the only things
To hold on to
My lack of beliefs

Pull me out
The blood stains
Too quickly
I’ve gnashed my
Teeth again

Wait, don’t tell me
This is the part
Where I’m supposed to feel sorry
For all you idiots
Who blindly take
Yet give with predilection
