I Saw Me From Behind

I saw me from behind

watching you on, but from afar

I wouldn't have known, If I should choose to go

Someone make my mind up for me,

Somehow.

something crawls out of landfill

something light and surprising

as I recall secret antics

I do to keep on watching

today I am mourning for what's yet to come, deep in the afterparty of death

Black, tarred, the walls eat everything up

grim appetite for the full dark night

if my thoughts had hands they would strangle me,

Tightly, entangling, but not before they reach for you and you would be the first thing they’d hold onto

“ say what you mean ”

in another universe i am not afraid of my voice.
in another universe my words are painted on walls,
displayed on neon signs in front of stores,
written in white chalk my school’s blackboard,
read in small printing shoved into a thin booklet.

in another universe i speak and you listen &
you speak and i listen too.
and my voice is soft like rose petals
but strong like the thorn bed that snugs close.
and your voice is wisp like spring’s clouds
and powerful like harsh winds in the cold.

in this universe i am afraid of my voice.
in this universe i speak but no one listens.
and you don’t speak but i will still listen.

why do I never admit what I will someday? make a lie for myself in a horrible way and I wouldn't like to watch you come tumbling too with some bleak misfortune, staring in silent rooms

I’ll never have time to kill. I never wanted to

but you must do

i guess i should stay and never come out

and wait for the gold to explode

because time is winding in now

the fish hooks look in tides for something

i wish i was just finely thinned out

into nothing

-s's.

you should know by now what a liar i can be, with two fingers crossed and whispering to you goodnight and sweet dreams, while i resist sleep in favor of picturing what tomorrow's abrupt entrance may bring—

what strength the dusty wind will blow with, what color of light the radiant sun will shine, what striking songs the birds will choose to sing,

or whether this heaviness will still weigh my life's sins on my heart and my mind,

and, maybe, what words from you will greet, from behind a waking veil, these still-sleepy morn eyes;
