Bleed.

‘I think everyone
should bleed life.’

Tentacles sensitive
to touch
retract upon
receiving of
slightest sensation.

Box up your feelings
and ship them on.

Fuck you!
(Fuck myself.)

You shouldn’t feel so sad for me;
tears don’t suit
your beautiful eyes.

Sister,
feel the magic of life
everywhere you go
because its melodies
are for you;

you should dance
like each song
was made
for your moments.
I’m sorry
I react so strongly
and withdraw so deeply,
but everything will be okay.

Standing on the cliffs
looking out,
it’s not the edge of the world:
we can go anywhere we want from here.
