i feel like that blade of grass with the yellowing edges/i think i should be with arizona/sweet tea and honeysuckles and sweltering amber skies/<i want to kiss her burning cheek without a hi>/

as rain drops you will taste/the sweet acidity of my tears/sublimation/in the demise of all fears/and the innocence of SNOW/so numb on white/<i want to taste the flake on sight>/

i am michigan/with a mitten to cover up/slipping/tripping/gray|grey sidewalk cracks/#rusty_stop_sign/what is life?/i'm tired/<i want to die>/


The author's comments:

life is confusing. it's whimsical and random. we're always doing this and that, and life just goes on. we're constantly thinking about things, good or bad, serious or hilarious, or anything. i wanted to portray the constant change of emotions, thoughts, and events we go through while living life. even if it sometimes doesn't make sense, we'll somehow make some sense of it and find some hidden surprises along the way. whatever we go through, we're all still here, living in the same moment. that's all that matters.
