    +The pendulum swings yet again back and forth
    +as I ask you the millionth time and one more
    +if you still love me, still tolerate
    +my existence, are sure towards me
    +you hold no sliver of anger or hate.
    +Because we've made these vows so many more times,
    +but I'm forbidden by my anxiety
    +from failing to plan for any contingencies.
    +Like I'm my father now,
    +I myself with questions hound:
    +"Well, now you're twenty-two,
    +and I don't want to seem like I'm forcing you
    +to come along with me."
    +
    +Angel numbers meet at midnight's bend.
    +"For you, you'll never see me again."
    +But Jett, does it work the other way?
    +If I ask you to, will you forever stay?
    +Will you swear yourself in health and sickness to my lonely side?
    +Will you in this new world I am creating reside?
    +
    +Because, you should know,
    +if you willed it,
    +I would gladly disappear.
    +
    +Go, if you must,
    +without fear.
    +I will be here
    +at the end of every day
    +to reclaim
    +that which was only ever mine.

    -How do I come to terms
    -with the fact that I will die?
    -How do I look my mother in the eyes
    -and say, "You won't have me
    -for that much more time?"

    -I look in your eyes,
    -and I see a flame

    -that signals something
    -arriving
    -just over the horizon.
    -
    -I expected to be dying by now,
    -strength fleeing from my limbs,
    -lungs crushed by anxiety
    -like the world itself was closing in.
    -I got all my homework done early
    -in February
    -even though graduation was three
    -months away, not knowing
    -what state I would be in,
    -six months from onset

    -Clean up the experiment, jar me up, return me to the shelf
    -in tanager's formaldehyde, amber sleep, sanctioned suicide.
    -You haven't really died until you've returned to the earth,
    -I think, given back the dust in your bones
    -to this planet that insists it be your home.
    -You haven't really disappeared
    -until your body has dispersed so much
    -that nobody can point at the ground and say,
    -"The person I love now rests here."

    -This vessel, I hope, will not be preserved
    -in a morgue, under a man's care, final horror.
    -My body was never ever really mine
    -in this life.
    -Mother still sometimes cries
    -that I'm not a doll anymore,
    -won't wear dresses anymore.
    -Will she keep me around when my body moves nevermore,
    -preserved, plasticized,
    -mannequin most lifelike?
    -Deny me Velouria's embrace one last time?
