Stay with me
Let's just be
I'm allergic to dust,
And I think there's something metophorically significant about that, because if you think about dust it's really just human rust.
And I'm okay with being allergic to rust.
Because the only cure for being allergic to human rust, is to sit down with someone and agree that everything seems okay to you.
That we don't need to change.
**** that.
Because if we were really on the right path than maybe we wouldn't continue to be the targets of our own wrath after all the polar ice caps have been knocking on our door for a while now,
Just asking if we'd turn the heat down.
See we're rusting because there's never in history been this much self destruction and it's getting disgusting.
I'm sorry, to everyone who comes after us because although it's not too late it will be.
Even as I write this we can still fight this but not for too much longer.
Quit living in the bubble they've put you in and stretch your gaze a little bit farther than the media maze and realize all of those people who aren't are real, or will be.
And with your own two hands you can build something better for them from your comparatively fortunate circumstance.

I wonder if you can hear the sound of my heart breaking
With each and every lingering moment that passes between us
Creating an anomaly of congealed insignificance and broken pieces
Pieces of what we used to be when our passion was harder than any metal
I have to wonder if you see who we've created among our tapering bodies
To bear witness to such atrocities held deep within our disturbed souls
To think it does not phase a single cell of your beautiful and vigorous brain
When I say my heart is breaking I mean with every fiber of my being
That the longing aches are gradually moving in with cancerous tendencies
Due to the lack of blissful love and happiness you bathed me in
Perhaps I shall not advance for the benign lies you carefully present
Underlying the very truth that pours from your soft and lush lips
Every liquidated word that snakes down into your veins as chills
Shivering through the marrow of these tired and heavy structural bones
Attacking my nerves and ravaging upon what is left of my being
After the emotional and physical terror you have inflicted upon me
I still run back into your wicked and wanting arms of caress
I still love you.
I know the pain you feel is deep,
your want from life is simple peace.
And though I cannot guarantee,
please listen closely, as I speak.

Presently you stroll alone,
searching for a hand to hold.
You feel your sorrow in your bones,
in harshest sun, you still feel cold.

Pre - dawn, however, is darkest night
that must be followed by morning light.
I pray you won't give up the fight,
the universe will set things right.

I know at times, it seems unclear
that happiness is always near.
But wholly I believe my dear,
someday soon, you'll find some cheer.
