Description

hey. how have you been? i've been busy selling out


look at me


oh the golden days when i used to string pretty words together

the hammer behind my words, the terrifying echoes of something immortal, invisible, all-powerful


and then i remember this thing called my voice and you called it unique

i censored it sometimes because it tore shit apart and

now i talk and talk and say nothing at all


but they say i'm pretty

they say

i say

my bird bones say


my phone is a parade of endless monosyllabic conversations


"hey

hey

what's up

not much wbu

same

sweet lol"


every day

every day i meet a progression of people who don't find me intimidating, 

eccentric, terrifying, or real


i ain't special, but i'm cool


lol. you should laugh at me. out loud. you really should.


look at me, message me, but are you

listening?


no. i'm censored, muted, maimed


oh wait look another snapchat

i gotta go be cool now

Why is it that your literature always leaves me speechless. I spend almost ten minutes, sometimes, trying to put my feelings into a language that is so bland, it's unreal. Though English is the only language I speak, I feel as though it lacks content and emotion., and thus why I'm always searching for words that meet my feelings, but I rarely ever find ones that express them in the manner that I want.

I make every attempt to treat everyone as a very unique entity. I also can't stand social interaction that isn't deep in thought.

Grrrr..... I give up, I can't express myself in the manner that I feel about your poem. Everything that I type isn't coming close to my feeling, I'm sorry...

We humans never move on from the character we have always had. We remain the same creatures we always were.
