5 Short poems

#1 Untitled

I’m not really sure what should be next.

I’ve never had one place to call mine.

I’ve built houses in others’ bodies.

Sought shelter in different lands,

And yet,

I feel like an unplugged vacuum.

Taking up space in your closet.

Waiting for that one moment

to be useful.

#2 A Fucked Up Sort of Calm

Sometimes when you know you’re better,

you still think about your eventual death,

and there comes this strange calmness...

What the fuck is that about?

# 3 Temple of Your Body

What temple have you visited lately?

My body.

What did you destroy?

All I could find.

#4 Nothing and Everything

When you believe you are nothing,

Nothing,

becomes your Everything.

#5 Second Chances

When all you long for is death,

Life, bitter and neglected,

bulldozes its way

back into your life

begging for a second chance.
