alcohol to numb

pleaure i should

give and can’t

clear a way out

of a thought spiralling

in time with the sound

of alarms rising pitch

and volume to fill

everything unknown

ball up on top

the carpeted stairs

if you haven’t taken

to flight in fear

of the crash

aging

we’ll take time to grow out

of habits harder than the nails

that carved them into our

stretching bones molding to fly

hell is poorly written

don't you see we were

supposed to fall straight down

on a stake without a push

because even the devil doesn’t want

control over some destruction

but damn

i breathe hard

some days

my chest heaves

from the effort

it takes to stay

alive there isnt

much to it

and yet here

i am asking

if it’s worth it

if i should be

going at this

even with just

the fifty percent

ready to quit

a countdown

a one side love affair

a two-month choke hold

a three-armed dragon

wrapping around warped

limbs i knew only to collapse

after freedom’s comfort

was robbed of the right

to breathe and possess

why

don't think of grandiose purpose

there's simply nothing else

i'd rather do than weave

words into stress and unpaid bills

quit

light up a cigarette

i don’t smoke just to hold

between shaking breaths

and fingers in cold air

stale conversation stalled

in anticipation of a break

something like surrender

to what’s right here burning
