comforting myself

42 9 15
                                    

I went outside to hit myself.

I realised I don't think about

Myself that much.

The sun did it for me,

Stabbed me warm and orange.

I stared at it until it was all

Eventually blue. Everything.

My vision being desaturated,

I loved it for once.

I had to love it, for if I didn't

Then how could I try

To not be upset.


My garden door made me float.

Passing through grey

And watching myself.

I see as I walk across stairs

Or nothing. I don't know.

Aware of my bed,

I know. But,

I do not care.


I went inside to see black.

I loved it.

To see my eyelids fall down

And block my sight.

Slowly, blurry,

Drunk. Seeing fumes

Smoke up at night

And blaze the air, waging

War with nothing. My body.

My arms inextricable

Across my bones.

I faded out,

With the moon.
