So empty I want to throw it up.

As when I'm in love

Too sudden; too fierce, too quick
in the mist of it. Stuck in the 
front of it. Obsessed with the delicate
way it might fall when you breathe too 
much in all at once. Too strong when you want 
it to go it will not stay apart
of your reflection if 
you stare too long
it passes
 like a shadowy space in a dark room with a slightly 
open door. When you want more 
it takes away your free 
will it takes away your true
self ish ness. 

In the tomb nothing is large
Everything fits
carefully, precisely
it dissolves, making space
making room
letting go
to pieces 
to amber

Thank god for depression I can understand. Feelings I know how to feel

To be sore and damp

cryptic blood, still blood, dripping from my eyes
behind my eyes
pain
Still silent through the screeching and smashing
only staring; wondering how to stop it
but not trying
To be fine, but not hoping
I'll be fine but not striving
Walking through streets and worry
shushing care and feeling
hushing woe and wonder
nothing inspiring
nothing too taxing
nothing to die for
no maryter, no murder, no wish
but not praying
