A poem about a dream

I've been playing in the wind,

Running my fingers through

Its oldest memories and

Plucking the ripe ones.

.

Entertain me.

Bleed through your sunsets

Into the night and then weep

Into my open mouth.

.

I need to be nourished

By the universe's pain

Because if I don't taste it,

Then it might not exist.

.

I cannot stand the concept

Of a universe that doesn't suffer

When it so casually

Pulls me apart.

.

Does it hurt with me?

The needing to know starves me

Until nothing but cruelty

Remains.

.

And I find myself digging

My fingers into nebulas

With tears on my face

And blood on my hands.

.

Because it wasn't supposed to

Be like this, but here you are

With your secrets.

And here I am with my hunger.
