I hold onto my emotions
lest they disappear into the
overwhelming silence,
lest they shatter on the
jagged shoreline,
crushed by waves of
sheer indifference.
I encircle my emotions
within my own embrae,
coldness is everywhere.
I no longer insist on acceptance,
or futile gestures
bearing more shadow than meaning.
I’ve planned the ceremonial drowning of
my own meager expectations.
I anticipate no visitors at the
bedside of my dying for
i will soon be forgotten
as it should be.
