Trail Marker

Ebbing and flowing self-hatred 

Always

Covered in white with a blanket of snow

Enter by the trail marker 

Her body lays surrounded 

Like a snake in the tall grass

Seasons changing

The sun burning from bright white-yellow to 

Burning orange and red

We were closer when I was further away 

I thought you had to grow up –

You thought I was desperate for someone to 

Love me the same

Some of the longest times of my life have been

Getting though just one minute

I think of things in terms of pictures

And some of them don’t always turn out how they seem

All my secret spots are lost

I disappear into old photos of these places

The breakdown

The collective undoing of your entire self

DON’T SWALLOW THE GREEN PILL

Materialistic 

Consumer driven world 

Living to show off for the internet

IMMOBILIZING MEMORIES

My late-night-lover

Crarwled into the dark

Undiscovered

We all looked younger and better then

Lost traditions

I feel like I have this really obscure 

Black and white

Way of thinking

That doesn’t mesh well with others

So why even bother

Life is so obviously precious and that makes it 

Hard to do anything without 

Fucking it up

The hours I waited for you

Wasted passion

Constantly changing green and red glow 

As the traffic lights flood my windows

I’m revisiting plots of revenge 

You’re falling asleep and waking up refreshed

More conversations with 

Situations I’m playing in my head

Than with any real person I know

What is this joke

Divine liquid sunshine 

Melt me into these memories

Before a time

When the people we lose touch with become

The ghosts that haunt our bones 

I’m glad I know you – 

Even if its in a different way these days

…Just kidding
