My friend Josiah ODed in May. I wrote this after he died, but it's not about him directly.


A shot in the morning keeps me high
Hello Moon,
Hello Sky.
Bring me down
-Afternoon-
you really could not arrive
here
too soon

Don’t leave me hanging
Don’t leave me by myself tonight
Don’t leave me hanging
Just don’t leave; stay here with me awhile

Weigh me down in the morning
I might take off before too long
I hope I get old, before I die
A chance to feel love
To kiss the sky

Don't leave me hanging
Don't leave me by myself tonight
Cradle my head and comfort me
Like the nurse for the boxer that just lost his fight
 
pretty cool. it's proof that you don't need flowery language to get your message across powerfully. it kinda reads like it should be a song.
 
I echo pennywise's sentiment on the lyrical potential of this, as well as am able to feel the push and pull of the poetry.:D
