Let you see
When i fold when i crumble, when i shatter when I die
When the oblivion wasn’t enough, and there was only one option in my tinted and cloudy eye
Don’t go on and see the world for its beauty, don’t see guidance in the stars,
or new beginnings in the crashing waves of the ocean
See the world for how I’ve always seen it, beautiful and tragic and violent and strange
See the dying oak trees that are fading away, that were once so strong but have succumbed to fate
see the ocean waves that take people under, (a tragedy but a silent goodbye to suffering)
When I die look at the flowers, admire the ones which are deadly
When I die read my poems, you’ll finally know the side of me that was more than just tired,
More than everything I let you see
