Qual um obituário

Que vida é essa que me tem
Que me sova
Que me rasga
Que me embebe
E que me enxágua
Que me recorta e assa
Que me queima as bordas
E me despeja na lata
Que sonho foi
Que um dia tive
De ver o dia brilhar
E à noite admirar estrelas
Que felicidade
Que um dia pensei que havia
Que haveria
E quem eu calculei que seria
Aos passos do calendário
Quando foi que tudo
Virou-se ao contrário
Que avesso ao qual
Eu mereço e pertenço
E quanto tempo
Eu ainda tenho
E quais pedaços
Ainda não perecem
Sob o sol e ar seco
Sob o mofo do meu teto
Quais palavras me restam
Para compor este texto
E quanta dor
Ainda me guarda
Para descartar-me aos poucos
Qual o último pedido
Que eu nem sequer faço
Se não que seja finito
Todo o céu e o fato:
Dezembro está por perto
É um péssimo retrato

Attachment

Are you my friend?
I'm scared to ask
I take you out
Inside my head
We go to a bar
Table and chairs outside
There's a guitar and a singer somewhere near
We ask for some french fries
I drink a can of guarana soda
And unrap a new pack of cigs
The night will take so long to end
Because my watch's not working
Dew covers us
I feel happy and fulfilled 
I take a blue pen out of my purse
Start making drawings on a napkin
I invite you to play some silly word game with me
And
And then
I lay my head over your arm
Like you're a hammock I just found
Sitting in the dark
Waiting to embrace me
I hear the sounds of the night
Either a beer or an ice cream
I love you and I feel the love
Through my body
Like something I consumed
I wanna sleep between your lungs
So I can hear your heartbeats
Like a lullaby 
I have to close my eyes
To appreciate the moment
But once I do
You disappear
Like a smell I recognize
But don't know where from
Therefore, I cannot name
I remember being happy
Through someone else
But now
Now I'm unplugged.

More Apologies

I'm sorry Jessie, 
and I'm sorry Pete
I'm sorry all the strangers 
That I dared to meet
I'm sorry Jay and
I'm sorry Marie
But I had to live
And silence has been my only true friend 
Now that I think of it

Day Out

It's been a couple months
And I forgot
About the spikes on my skin
About the soft spot on my back
That makes me crawl
About the soft spot on my heart
(That one was rough)
But then I got my ECT
Then they pinned me on a bed
(Not the way you thought)
Like a paper note on a corkboard
And it hurt like hell
But I kinda liked it
And then I got out 
In a light breeze,
And I got punched in the gut
Right on my biggest trauma
And even the panic state
I entered in that moment,
Pondering about
Taking my body to the 
middle of the street
(Waiting for a car strike)
And even my right knee
Giving signs of my white strands
It didn't hurt as half
As realizing
That knowing I'm loved
It's completely pointless
Outside the fantasy
Of being held on one's arms
Or being gently led
Into an extreme clímax
About falling apart
And having hands over my throat
And some soft talk
It doesn't matter
When any of that cannot be accomplished
I can feel my core
Getting empty and empty
Like a dehydrating plant
Forgotten in time
I can feel all my hopes leaking
Day by day, 
Going down the drain,
While I realize
Happiness is not an option
And will never be
I guess I'm lucky
If I don't starve to death
Due to the current circumstances
I'm doing my best 
to live another day
But I don't even want to

Still Apologies

I'm sorry mom, I'm sorry friend,
But I had 
To keep myself alive
I'm sorry Fred,
I'm sorry Matt,
But I had
To keep myself alive
I'm sorry Pedro
Y Miguel,
But I had
To keep myself alive
I'm sorry Peter
And 
I'm sorry Dad,
I'm really sorry, but I had
To do my best
To keep myself alive
I feel like I abandoned 
My whole crew 
I'm sorry to all my friends from school
But I knew
I had
To keep myself alive
I'm sorry all the boyfriends
That I broke up with
And the way I blocked you
So that I could sleep
But I swear I had
To keep myself alive
I am so so sorry
For all that I did
For my absence and promises 
For making you believe in me
I'm sorry if I caused you any pain
But I would, and will do it again
And I am not ashamed
Because I did it
So that I could live,
And none of you
Would have helped me
Doing that. 

Gray, Yellow and Grief

I smell old cigarettes 
And taste trauma
A bug tries to crawl me
And I'm begging not to cry
'Cause I don't know if
I'm able to stop
I'm trying to figure out
Why do I always leave pieces of me
Hidden as a riddle's prize
As if my worst rival knew my address
And kept sending me those creepy gifts
From the past
I feel like I'm time traveling,
Again,
But it's not like I have a sense of time
And I don't even know who I'm talking to, but
They want me to know who they are
And I'm so tired of communicating 
I just need some time alone
I'm so exhausted
From this never ending party
From this restless gathering
I'm tired from being always the old one
The lonely one
The silent one
The one that has to shut them up
And give them a lap to cry on
I miss him,
Like I miss myself
Like I miss a sense of purpose
Or some reality version
To believe in
I miss him
Like I miss having parents
Or the one's I made up in my head
When I was 4 to 10
I miss the boy that I had faith in
Like a sort of Jesus Christ
To save me from my current hell
I miss him
Like I miss my hope and thoughts of happiness
Like I miss enjoying an egg shaped chocolate
At april
But in July
I miss him
Like I miss thinking Santa
Was a real figure
Like I miss believing that someone loved me enough
To pay me a visit
Just to leave presents
For me to open
I miss believing in a french toast
And decorating a christmas tree
Made of plastic, and love
I miss the smell of air conditioner 
That worked on water
While I slept on the floor
Over my mattress
With my blue blanket
And my naivety
I miss him
Like I miss a bird
Like I miss a lover
Like I miss my mom
Like I miss being loved
By someone
Or pretending to
And his empty image in my mind
His gray and yellow ghost
Is the only thing still keeping me alive.

Fertilizer

Silence haunts me
Like I'm a child
Who can only sleep
With the lights on
I feel nauseous,
Like I lost a battle
Like I lost the war
But how could I not
When I don't even know
What I'm fighting for
When I don't even know
Who I'm fighting with
I take a day off
Of my meds
Of myself
Of my whole body
I eat late
I sleep late
I can't close my eyes
I can't cook my meals
I can't clean my room
I can't change my sheets
My hands are hostages 
I'm locked in the basement
Because if I open the gates
She might come out
And if she does
We all know the whole house will fall apart
I feel the gaps
The shadow escaping through 
Under the door
I need to be shut down 
But the loneliness
And the lack of eyes above my head
Over my skin
The lack of sound
To ruin my eardrums
It all eats me up
Like I'm a piece of candy
I wanna puke it all out
But I'd probably die
She's like a cancer
Rotting my vitals
But if I take her off 
I can no longer function
I'd turn into dust

Dysphoria

I can't sleep
There's a baby crying
The women are fighting
I just need some peace
But I can't fucking have it
Feel like I'm losing my mind
It's just a monday night
Actually, it's 8am
The birds got tired to sing
Even they have something to do
With their useless lives
I wish I wasn't lost into that pit
They keep on yelling
Bossing me around
Write about it!
Keep your mouth shut!
I don't even know who I'm talking to
I wonder if I'm real
If I really have a face
Or if this body I'm possessing
It's a temporary vehicle
It's already fading away
And I can feel it
I've been eating 
Like a starving opossum
Like a mother
Like a pregnant woman,
Carrying babies in her oven
But I want to burn my babies alive
Or crush them like an olive
Make some olive oil
Rub it over my skin
To feel fresh 
I have been chaining her down
Deep, deep into my basement
My secret well
Where I keep all of my shadows
And leave some music on
To entertain them
She's still psychotic
If she goes out I'm dead
But I couldn't ask for help
I guess
This sounds exactly 
Like a delusional event
I guess I shouldn't have touched it
I shouldn't have opened my eyes
I shouldn't have opened my mouth 
My door, my heart, my soul
I shouldn't have let him in
Or offered a cup of coffee
I shouldn't have pulled the chair
For him to sit
And make me some company
I should have never spoke
To anyone again
They will drive me insane
I can only speak to the mirror
But she hates me

Detalhes Sórdidos

I jump into a black hole
Trying to avoid you
Any thoughts of you
Any thoughts at all
My whole skeleton aches
I've been lost in there
for 10 hours or more
My eye is twitching
My throat is dry
My heart jumps of a bridge 
With the sound of you
Texting me
Good morning
Using my full name
I yell back
Like I'm a child
You sound like a father
You always do
But I actually need a friend 
And you don't know how to be that
You're unaccessible 
Like an island
I scare you off
You really look like a cat
Meow meow, cheri
I'm about to bite you
You better run away indeed
If you wanna keep your tail
I hate all of my parents
I hate all dads and moms 
Around the world
I hate you too,
And you don't even have to be
Any of those

Deveriam ser Antipsicóticos

Não posso nem descrever
O tamanho da dor 
que você tem me causado
Eu costumava gostar de sentir dor
Não gosto mais
Queria me sentir confortável
Mas não me parece mais uma opção 
Se foi em algum momento
Você a roubou de mim
Roubou meu corpo de mim
Por favor, devolver ao remetente
Eu sei que você vai pensar que é brincadeira
Quer dizer, 
Pensaria, se fosse ler este texto
A minha malcriação e tudo mais
Mas eu tô cansada desse joguinho idiota
E talvez eu que tenha começado
Sinto muito
Não quero continuar
Eu não brinco quando eu falo de delírio
É tudo de verdade
Mas esse é justamente o ponto
Eu não sei mais em qual verdade devo confiar
Vou seguir a fechar meus olhos
Meus ouvidos
Meu espírito
Não sei como te enviar a mensagem
Mas espero que você desapareça da minha vida
Estão todos em pânico
Gritando pra você sair
