I prefer the night
To the day
The world, on the whole, is quieter
This way
"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
I prefer the night
To the day
The world, on the whole, is quieter
This way
It’s hard to explain what happens
When I’m standing alone up there
I’m just willing it all to end
To no longer have to care
I forget about everyone
And every little thing
It’s just me and the breeze
With the comfort it can bring
My mind is crystal clear
And I don’t hear a sound
As all of my focus is trained
On finally hitting the ground
I’m glad
I kept
your aftershave,
so that I
can wear
it too.It’s the
only thing
that I
have left,
that keeps
me close
to you.(Originally Posted 14.06.2019)
They say you don’t know
What you mean to people
Whom you may never see
Well all I can say
Is I hope and pray
That no one relies on me
I really am sorry
I cannot take your weight
For my arms are too broken
From carrying my own

I
honestly
don’t
rememberWhen
I last
felt
human
touchAnd
as
time
goes
onI’ve
started
to
feelThat
I actually
don’t
mind
too
much
Will
it
always
be like
this
She
said
Don’t
I deserve
a reprieve?
That
all
depends
on the
book
He
said
In
which
you
choose
to believe
I
miss
youWhen
my
feet
are
coldAnd
how
youWould
always
warm
them
soXxx
Sing
to me
some
more
She
said
For
your
voice
I hold
so dear
I’ll
always
sing to
you
He
said
Even
when
I’m no
longer
here
Xxx
I
feel
so
sad
She
said
Can
you
help
me?
I’ll
certainly
try
He
said
Here’s
some
tea
It’s
not
that
I don’t
want
to
She
said
I
just
don’t
know
how
Come
a little
closer
He
said
None
of
that
matters
now
Someone
once
told
me
It’ll
all be
OK in
the end
That
person
lied
to me
And
is no
longer
my friend
And
then
it
hits
Like
a ton
of
bricks
And
I don’t
feel a
thing
I wish
you were
with me
Gently
squeezing
my hand
Providing
me with
comfort
Helping me
understand
As
the rot
starts
to set
in
I
pour
myself
another
gin
To
silence
the pain
in my
head
As
the
thoughts
seem to
shift
My
mood
starts
to
lift
And
I can
finally
get out
of bed
Time
was
you
would
comfort
me
And
things
would
be just
fine
But
now it’s
much
too late
for that
As
we
both
crossed
the line
I know
I really
shouldn’t
laugh
At her
seemingly
heartfelt
epitaph
But I
know you
would’ve
had a giggle
At such
overwrought
sentimental
drivel
Xxx
I don’t
know
why
I call
As I
know
you
can’t
respond
I just
need
to hear
your
voice
So
that
I can
carry
on
As I
open
up my
scars
The
blood
flows
once
more
As I
begin
to see
stars
I fall,
sated,
to the
floor
It was
exactly
one year
ago
That we
were all
sat in
that tent
But there
was only
one who
truly
listened
To my
broken
hearted
lament
From that
day we’ve
kept in
touch
Developing
connections
of our
own
That’s
because
you chose
both of us
To reap
from the
seeds you
had sown
