Remember To Drink Water, Homies

remember to drink water, homies

Unironically forgot I existed here

anyways life updates: have to write essays and do math went up to the counselling centre in my uni and they told me they'll assign me to someone but they havent responded yet the waffles at the dessert stall in my uni food court is so underrated im recovering from a cold that debilitated me for the busiest day in my week been wondering if the person i admire and his friend hates me living on earth seems infinitely more miraculous when i get to sit and watch the clouds billow against the setting sun amidst mango trees in front of my apartment

a woman scorned

rage is scaldingly cold

she treads on my throat and tickles my tear ducts with tear gas 

she chases my heart and recklessly manhandles my muscles  

i wrap her in thick blankets and tie her legs down 

rage is a needy child 

she nestles at my teat and triggers my restlessness 

she thirsts for vengeance and screams like a hungry newborn 

i stick a feeding bottle into her mouth and lock her in her crib 

rage is my prideful dignity 

she looks them in the eyes and laughs at their demise 

she was fed misery and pain and torture and she had enough 

i promise myself to let her scream just once (i break my promise)

unavoidable arguments

—

rattling off my reasons

like how dare you

my threshold is made of gold

and you can’t taste it on your teeth

I brought a seed underneath

sleeping at the bottom

of a lively autumn

some flowers bloom with little to no room

responding to the sun

and taking a picture

is the closest you can come
