Dead People In The Bathroom
Mama’s in prison,
why ain’t she here?
There’s dead people
in the bathroom
and a rat over there.
The water kept rising,
If an island ever daredTo be stranded with meI'd take my laptopAnd a coffee shopWith the wi-fi free
i nestle my toes beneath a quilt of powdered rock
and i am remembering;
feel a cool breeze rustle the hairs on my burnt neck,
remembering;
To create something from nothing,
Is a skill that I hold,
A master chef I will be,
Or so I am told,
If I were to be left with nothing,
I would not want to forget,
My extreme love for cooking,
To what do we owe
The pleasure that surrounds us
Every second of our lives
Something we would not give a second thought
Imagination
Without it
We would have nothing
I would have nothing
What I need to suceed on an island,
Is my dearest mother.
Mother make me food please.
Mother make my bed please.
Mother help me find a job please.
I know you aren't my maid, mommy dearest.
Slight ting from crisping golden beams,
The mellow sway of palms rustles
There leaves chirping
Intrinsic in the forgotten hustle
The sounds left beyond the tides.
The oscillating sound
I've thought about this question plenty, too plenty to recountI could shame the number of ripples in the water surrounding theisland in which im stranded, with how many times I've rejected You.
I can guarantee
that when you see me
I will be
overthinking
It's a bit of a curse
the outcome can hurt
but I'd be lying to say
it didn't have its perks
The Waves broke
The winds croak
The sky scary blue
The sand so new
The plane crashed
Im the only one left
No life in sight
Not ready to fight
Blood dripping from my head
I am stranded.
On a desert.
I will bring one thing.
I will bring my husband.
My husband brings me happiness.
My husband brings one more brain.
My husband brings two more hands.
Stranded on a deserted island.
How Drawl.
Oh how I would long for a companion.
Under a palm tree with a lover is all I would need.
Life without someone to share it with would be pointless.
It is weird that I am here.
Trapped.
On a beautiful island I cannot call my home.
I have no cell phone, no coffee, no friends of my own.
Deserted, I feel..alone.
All I need is the motivation,
the motivation to get up in the morning,
the motivation to keep getting up in the morning,
the motivation to get up every morning.
The motivation to make it
If I became stranded on a deserted island
there's one thing I'd surely need,
that is the peace of mind that comes
from being alone and at ease.
To be ok with lonliness
not needing company,
My world spins for you
Your love I can't comprehend
I won't challenge it
It's not that easy
To find devotion like this
But yet here you are
All the work you do
The sun beamed down on her.
The warmth calmed her.
She hadn't felt this good in years it seemed.
She felt fine,
But Lord knows she isn't.
I don’t really get quiet moments.
Between noisy conversations in overcrowded hallways
And my own intrusive thoughts,
Silence has ceased to exist in my life.
Even while I’m stuck on this god-forsaken island
Me
me myself
me myself and...
me myself and {i}
I am me
only me
alone
You ask what I would need
if I were hypothetically alone,
I can only take one thing
Alone, with blue, and sand, and me
I sit beneath a queenly tree
Her arms stretched out to greet the sun
While shielding me, the crispy one
Meant for the tropics, my miracle tree
Stuck on an isle, my Love and I.
Who else to dwell with under the sky?
Though oceans rage and sunbeams wave,
No tempest could swallow the love that we've saved.
Deserted, stranded, and lost at sea,
With the darkness around me I am lost.
I am no longer near my home.
I hear the waves crashing against the shore just like the waves of my anxiety smothering any light left inside me.
I fell so contained by this darkness.
All I need is Sydney
There is rhyme and reason why
Stranded on an island
without her I may die
she keeps me sane and stable;
She is my best friend can't you tell
I can not live without it, without it I would die.
I can not live without it, i can not even try.
I can not live without it, its most important to me.
I can not live without it, I bet you would agree.
