If I drowned today no would notic-


Oh I’m sorry!

How are you?

No need to worry!

I almost fle-


What, no?

I’m completely fine!

All you’ll see me show

Is colored in lines!

Haven’t seen the moon in a while

Day lit faces are a lie


Had a long day

I’ll speak to a knife


The moons been gone for years

The sun silences my thoughts

As well as my tears

And my skin that rots.
