Gladly Gone

Gladly Gone
a poem


If you want to hear a monster
Just listen to me breathe
Let it fill your mind up
Let it really seethe

If you want to see a nightmare
Just watch me where I stand
Let me tear your heart out
Let me make it bland

If you want to feel your world end
Just keep feeling ‘round for me
Let yourself keep searching
Let yourself run free

If you want to taste your future
Just leave me out of it
Let your tongue taste nothing
Let your thirst go wild for a bit

If you want to smell of roses
Just pick some for yourself
Let go of those held onto, like you’ve
Let go of your good health
