a year passes in a day
all i thought about were three people
who i love most
and i want to fight the urge to love you
because it’s clear now
but im too late to beat the urge to the finish line
you occupy all empty space of my mind
an eternity passed within an hour
i couldn’t rest in the suicide tower
singing and screaming
banging and howling
and all i thought about was how i have never felt safe
to feel my feelings
sleepless sighs
but by that time the adrenaline subsides
i was woken up
your name runs off my tongue, past my lips
they told me to put my clothes on
because times up
turns out i’m fine
days like today i am fine cutting short
but i can’t say that either
things i saw there, are things i never want to see again
i am wearing and tearing
so incredibly thin
but there’s no time for any of that
i have to get back from the ether

To Give Your Last Twenty
He walks oddly, shuffling and nearly tripping down the hallway toward his apartment door. I slow my pace, allowing my neighbor— a stuffy ex-marine with one missing tooth and a strong odor of liquor and two weeks' worth of unwashed stench always accompanying him—to reach his door. I crinkle my nose, nearly gagging as he dawdles ahead.
