Literature Text

welcome to the
liquid city; you
can't say that you're
floating from love
or you're drowning
in your sorrow because
here,

you already are.


everybody sleeps
with the fishes
and it doesn't mean
they're all alone,
buried in self-loathing
and their blood.

it's the norm in atlantis,
mermen gazing upon mermaids
as they swim past the oceanic
volcanoes; i swear that it'll
rock your world (literally)

you'll learn one thing
here; you can fall apart
like what the movies and the novels say; it's very
much real to
s
    h
      a
    t

    e
      r
like sand dollars when you realize that
there's nothing left to mend.

don't lose your gi(l/r)l(s)
now; you're so close to
the shore of paradise, you can
make it, you can make it there,
you can do it,
don't drown;
i'm putting all of my hope in you
because you're doing the one thing
i couldn't bring myself to do-

dive,
surface,
whisper your last words


<repeat.>
