Prepare for Impact
how could one part of
life be so beautiful
and the other half extremely
cruel and selfish
I go to the look at the ocean because
it’s the only place that I want to exist
the vast unknowingness,
how mysterious it is
I come to grips with knowing that
I’ll always be surrounded by addictions
people are wearing a mask,
they can trick your intuition
and break you into what
feels like infinite pieces,
but you cannot fix those
who are broken
it’s best to remember
our memories,
how amazing we are
when we both stare at
the same moon and stars
when I seek the beauty
in all of you
and always loyal to you
and proud to be with you
I always felt we were so much alike
and I miss the days
we would shine so bright
how it breaks my heart to say
I love you
so much
and I’m watching you put
yourself deep into harm's way
how something could look so perfect
can easily shatter, life is so fragile
you can to be delicate with it
and treat it careful
embrace the emotions respectfully,
I miss the sunsets and fast car riding
with my guardian angel
in the passenger right beside me
our song playing, the one about you and me
and how there's nobody else baby
when everything is shutting down
and life is falling apart,
I can only
prepare for impact,
being in this state feels mentally
and physically detached
