Behind a waterfall
That gives off hues of dull reds
And aching oblivions
I wait smiling with a mouthful of obsidian shards
Gums pierced, bleeding
You are the only one who ever heard my voice
And told me I'm really here
Pleasantly f*cked
Cascading truths I had always refused to hear
I wasn't afraid to swim
I just never wanted to
Beyond the mist where water meets the lifeless earth
There's no such thing as self righteousness
You won't hold my hand here and
I love you
