I was never
Meant
To exist
Not like this
Listless
It should have stayed
At just a kiss
Instead
I dream
Of emptied wrists
I should not
Have to feel
Like this
Yet I remain
Waning
Adrift

You have now gone fully digital (fully polygonal, even). Don’t drift too far from shore, Max. I, for one, need your writing.

You ok? Severe words cause for severe questions. Sorry..
The combination of the graphics and the poem are strong as hell. I think you must be too.

Thank you Christine. I’m sorry for appearing aloof. These are trying times as you are well aware given your own circumstances. I would ask that you not take my lack of considerate correspondence as any indication of my regard for you. For I hold you dearly in my heart. -Max

Remember that you don’t need to carry the weight of the world on your shoulders– support is only an IM, phone call or text away.
