SOMETIMES

ALCYONE
L.A. Maihi 2012

tis a hole I want to jump in
with a sky of dirt
to rest my heart upon a knife
and let it's journey hurt

tis a tree I want to hide in
underneath the bark
to splinter all my bones
and leave a bloody mark

tis the ocean I yearn to sink in
without any breath
to watch the bubbles go above
while cradling my death

tis a storm I wish to join in
hail pelting my skin
lightning strikes my face
the blackened flesh within

I seek no joy nor want it
I need no smile to see
but wallow within myself
to just let it be....
