What is this I don't even
I feel like I'm falling.
I feel the wind scraping across my ears and the scorching sensation of dread in my stomach, and I feel water flowing past my fingertips like the reality that oh-so-easily passes my vision.
I can't breathe either, but I like it that way.
The sun is blinding. I can feel the buildings weaving around me and the moon waiting to push past, but no, everything's moving too quickly.
I feel lightheaded. I must get out.
I must leave.
How do you escape when you're falling? I'd like to know.
But I guess...
All that matters is when you finally hit the concrete.
I wonder, does every second count?
I'm not quite sure.

She has beautiful eyes.
Her eyes, so sharp, and flawless, and perfect; the eyes that she keeps shielding...
She's always liked the dark. She wouldn't mind the uninviting aura it would give off, wouldn't mind the unexpected things that made their home there that would (if possible) send unpleasant shivers up and down her spine.
It always baffled me, why she would never replace her burnt-out light bulb in her room, or why her deep, dark irises stayed a dead shade in the light, whether it was from the sunlight or a spark in a fluorescent light bulb.
The fact that her eyes hardly ever saw perfection also disturbs me. Not literal perfection, b

Handle With Caution
I can tell you now,
That there has never been such
A great amount of
Uselessness in my lungs as there is now,
Because every intake of air
Claws at my chest and
Pricks at my eyes,
Like there had never been any greater misfortune
Than being sucked in by myself.
I can tell you now that
Your words can
Never be anything more than
A placebo for
What can never be achieved.
I can't tell you, however,
When our time here will be
Terminated, or how long
The grief
In my eyes shall linger, or
Why I even lay here, conscious
But empty.
But these fragments

Do you think it's good to have a normal life?
So many people have had bad things happen to them, had so many things torn out of their lives, experienced so much sorrow and regret...
Is it fair?
Probably not.
Who has it the worse: people with normal lives or people with abnormal ones?
I don't know. That probably has nothing to do with whether or not a life is good.
It's in the way you look at it, right?
Right...
But you can't help but wonder. No one can help but wonder.
What gives someone a right to complain? Having something horrible done to them? What does that leave the people who's never had anything horrible done to them, then? N
