Literary Abyss

What were we?

I aim to set our house aflame;
if thats what it takes,
for you to scream my name.

Im breathing in reverse,
sprawled across the hardwood floor-
inhaling embers and crawling to the door.

What is “infinity?”
A number or idea-
But then, what were we?

I could have sailed the seven seas eternally,
The oceans never get tired-
So why did she get tired of me?

Literary Abyss I love: writing, Greek mythology, zombies, psychology, the Pacific Northwest, the ocean, Madrona trees, xbox 360, my German Shepherd Akira, meeting new people, experience, other people's flaws and tattoos, Buddhist philosophy, etc.
Ask me anything. :]
