My world
Crumbling
I’ll keep climbing
But stumbling
Break my teeth
On the jagged mud
That spills out
From inside
No more blood

Fire awaits
After the fall
Blessed blisters
Drown
Hurting entrails
Of loss
And refused refund
Of my life
That was chaos
Not cheerful
Not blissful
Unhappy customer
Sorry
Life has no returns

Try again…I’ll still fail
Climb again
Impaled nail
Take a step
Off the same cliff
Think I’m going to
Call it quits

Black ink
Filled with death
Covered the stars
Sent Ravens to peck
Out my dry eyes
For I no longer cry
Point gone
Who cares
I lie in my bed
And stare
At the truth
Which is
I don’t care
