If I could stop my thoughts, I'd start smiling
and listen attentively to small birds whispering;
I'd walk aimlessly
Into the depths of nowhere
and wave at everything.

If I could detach all feeling, I'd cast it away
On the side of the road for day-trippers to see:
Let them catch a glimpse
Of the nullity
And all that I used to be.

If I could kill myself, I'd do it at sundown;
Dig myself a grave to catch some Z's.
No funeral or service,
No bystanders,
No one to mourn for me.

Life is wasted on the living.

I really appreciate the comment, yv.

Spiral out, keep going.
