feeling nothing, yet feeling everything
disconnection and dissociation
watching life with crimson vision
why does it all feel fiction?
thoughts of combustion and evaporating
being a part of the sky you can’t help watching
wanting to touch something pure
feel it alive. your hands
tremble and vibrate
and here you are
dreaming of swallowing the sun
instead of bad energy
running with broken wings
filling voids with anything vivid
sadness vast enough to fill an ocean
shredded skin and broken bones
from ceaseless devotion
still growing in desolate places
dying and being born simultaneously
you are beauty and terror entwined like lovers
godless gods in unholy places
Wow… I really enjoy this poem Katherine; it is extremely relate-able! Glad to see you never stopped writing ^___^
