sad post warning!

also tw for death, loss and grief

i wrote a poem after listening to the song euthanasia by will wood, which is about when he had to get his pet rat Mr Boy put to sleep and the song really hits me because ive had rats put to sleep before, so heres a poem about grief and losing pets that doesnt rhyme

Saying goodbye is hard and it hurts

But it hurts because you care

And its hard because you love them

Its hard to say goodbye

But you know you have to

Because they’d hurt more if they stay

You have to let them go

But its okay for it to hurt

You could go without hurting

But if you did youd never love

Pain is the end of love

Its knowing you’re seeing them for the last time

Knowing theres only one goodbye

And its so painful

And it only gets harder

Love hurts but to not love is to not live

Its seeing a glimse of them out the corner

Of your eye and thinking theyre back

Its seeing the empty bed

The absence hurts just as bad

But they have to go

Death is inevitable and it happens to everyone

Even rats

You hold on to the memory

You put flowers on their grave

And know they’re warm and safe

Inside your heart

Where they can live forever

But it still hurts that they’re in your heart

And not in your arms

But they’d never forget you

And you’ll never forget them

"Death is the mother of beauty; hence from her,

Alone, shall come fulfillment to our dreams."

for the first time, i can hear the stillness, and lack thereof.

i can hear the fan, not the mechanical buzz of the motor, but the soft woooshhhh of the air, the circling motuons of the flow

i can hear the darkness outside, not the birds or the crickets, but the absence of light, the whisper of the rising moon

serenity, I think is what it is

but it feels so bittersweet

like Earth wants to send me off with something nice to remember her by

The girl i once was - poem by me

i wanna feel this sweet feeling blood dripping from the tearing on my skin i wanna feel the sweet sweet taste the one the only not so fake the blood coming from my brain and from my heart pouring down my lips, and down my spine and down my chest, and down my sides pouring down to the floor where everyone has been before the floor that made me feel at peace when everyone has been so mean my love for you is never ending not there, not here when i'm landing the cold hard pavement caught my body it wrapped it's hands around nobody cause who was i down in this moment? who knows where my lonely soul went? it wrapped it's gentle hands around an empty shell memories were strong that night the girl i was in no one's sight the girl that no one really knew someone someday though might do but i guess not anymore the girl i was is not here not more she is happy up in the sky flying, crying floating high flying like the bird she was crying from her glowing eyes not a single pound to weigh her soul back down sirens howling in the cold night her mind is free and soul is so bright you want to know her, i don't blame you 'cause once your dead they all want to save you but look at the sky stars are shining and so is she. her heart is beating with the sea her eyes are glowing with the stars her blood is flowing at the mars she's forever gone but always here the girl i once was and the girl that's forever free

Disbelieving darkness and frightening final sounds

Relief that the meaning of life has yet to be found

with each moment is one coming to an end

Mortality’s grip from which we all shelter and hide

Fear is inevitable swelling up into gathering tides

Cruel showers strengthen and darken each wave

Fearing the moment of death as justly as you pretend

You long for it endlessly as if it’s the final answer

To the question you have no business asking in anger

Quit your pining and drown in that lively becoming kindness

You have no purpose washed up on the beach lifeless

All's well that's dead well.

As much I know about wealth

It only seems to keep up with my health.

Even though it may be well

Life is nothing but a burning hell.

We live for a long, and long period of time

But I feel like being alive is a crime.

As life starts to be a little more fun

It's very serious that we have to run.

My favorite poem that I made

I want to be loved like a dead girl

Like the hollow of breath left behind in her smile

Like the space between her lover's fingertips

Where her lips parted in a smile

Maybe on a hot summers day

Leaving traces of her memory and sweat behind

I want to be loved like a dead girl

Endless and dark, like the guilt she left behind

Like the stretching of hands to tell her you're sorry

To tell her you didn't mean it

To tell her you didn't think your hands would feel like claws to her

To tell her you didn't know what she really was asking for

To tell her you're sorry you're sorry you're sorry

I want to be loved like a dead girl

Like the loneliness of a sad sad song

The open windows in a colourful room

The tenant long gone

The traces of her fragrance in the air,

Contrasted by the grim disposition

Of her leave

beer breath

There are many and lots of sorrows I own

Barely twenty-three

Barely feel my soul

I crave to be burned into ash and bone

Along with the half that left me unwhole

One of those sorrows is being so flawed

Like a dead rose

Lost most of its beauty

Establishing I am no grand act of God

I feel incapable of being so choosey

Get what you get and don’t be so hostile

My breath tonight

It’s just Pacifico beer

Put a dead rose into the empty bottle

To remind myself that I’m sadly still here

a.b.

Another year, another day

Seems like the world wants me to play

Be happy, enjoy, celebrate

It's my born day, time to jubilate

But my heart is heavy, my mind is down

As I try to shake away this thorny crown

For every year on this same date

I feel like I'm trapped, in a cycle of fate

The clock ticks louder, the day feels longer

As I try to smile for the sake of my honor

The balloons and cake, the gifts and joy

All feel like a facade, a clever decoy

For deep down, I just can't shake

The pain that comes with this same date

He was my twin, my best friend too

And since he's gone, my heart feels askew

I don't care for the celebrations or the cheer

For when I look in the mirror, I see a twin no longer near

So I'll keep to myself, and push through the tears

For even though he's gone, our bond remains dear.

it’s seventy degrees in october. a shaft of sunlight falls through the windshield of my car and i remember being blinded by the same sun at eight years old from the back of the car as you came to check on me. or when you offered to cut the food on my plate for me or took me away from the noise of the kitchen to teach me how to play video games.

there are some days where i wake up and wonder why you weren’t at my graduation or why you haven’t come around for the last couple christmases.

close enough to remember you fondly but far enough for me to forget, just for a second; hanging in that in-between thinking that i should invite you over for lemonade and catch up on everything you’ve been up to before remembering that it’s been five years and i should really go visit your grave.
