Poetry

The Moments Before

The vicious worm has taken my stomach
Sweetness stings

I live my life scared
Constantly throwing myself off, hoping for strings to catch me

I wrote by biography as I went
Sometimes I’d skip ahead, writing the happy endings before they happened
With my pen, I spilt the blood of those fallen dreams

All’s fine, yet I feel I know the date of my execution.
