He tells me I won for the performance, Not the poem. My mother's teachings tell me to take what I can get. And so when I get home that night I do not cry myself to sleep. And it becomes a habit. I learn to stop asking questions. I love without asking why. I am left and do not ask why. In this way the silence is never hollow. Never empty. Always crowded with the unsaid. In this way I forget self loathing because you cannot hate someone you don't know. In this way I no longer feel the need to escape. Because I am never anywhere. Always nowhere.

Its easier than one might think, To stop being sorry. You just have to stop being. Reduce yourself to a concept. Guilt only exists in the abstract sometimes. I cease begging for forgiveness because I don't know what I did wrong anymore. But I repent anyways. There is a difference. Don't ask me why. No questions, remember?

I bash my head against the wall. And my skull shatters into a million stars. But I still don't get to become a constellation. The sky is disgusted with me. I am adjusting poorly to existence. But do not fret, love. Youre doing just fine.

The sun tosses herself into the arms of the sea
His vast embrace, the only thing she has never felt too infinite for
She takes comfort in being swallowed whole for the night
Savours the sensation of being devoured
~ oh celestial love, even the sun longs to be encompassed sometimes, for it is no weakness to desire to be held. you are never too much for someone who cannot get enough of you.
