April


It is that rapture 

in the horizon

 

I see all the 

burning buildings

 

Muffled screams 

horrid explosions

 

Roaring fires melt away

in the foreground to the setting sun

 

Quiet may come 

with the dark tranquil sky

 

Even if it does not,

I still have love

 

Another lonely soul

just killed themselves

 

A soon-to-be lonely soul

just entered the world

 

Can’t be indifferent,

but I don’t need to care

 

I’ll be lost a few more 

times

 

I’m certain that

you will be too

 

Reveal in the good 

moments

 

Stay true when the 

horrible ones come

 

I’m a dogshit poet

but I still type away

 

If you have any sense, 

keep going

 

Even if you feel like mud,

keep going

 

The Chaos will last forever,

I know

 

But be assured, 

the adventures are just beginning
