The Velocity Of Death

life

I can’t remember it all

I still remember it all

I can’t talk about it

I always talk about it

It’s a secret I keep

It’s a secret you kept

I’ll take it to the grave

you took it to the grave

it haunts me like a 

stalker who want me

it stalks me night and day

day and nightly like snakes

in the grass staking out 

to bite me I wrote you

letters though you 

can’t write me I can’t

stop typing out the letters

It’s like I’m practicing to

spell better to feel

better it’s not elementary

It’s sentimental emotional

reality digging in deep

with a spoon trying to

dig Cancer out the sign

you were born under

I heard on that day

 it thundered like a roaring

 Lion like the leo in me

 It’s astrology when it 

comes to us you’re the

star I’m the dust  

I should look away but

can’t stop gazing

into nothingness it’s

nothing there and still 

I stare and won’t dare look

away and though the 

headache sleeps me

and awakes the pain

I don’t remember a thing

I still remember everything

I feel everything it hurt some

type of way imagine

holding a pen filled 

with disappearing ink 

writing inside a pageless

book all the things I dare

say out in the open air 

while I still breathe
