Capsule

he broke open the capsule glass today
underneath this drifting sea of pain
he melted into much better, better, sweeter days
and decided to never come up for air again
he watches through the capsule glass at you searching
like a child crying at some mother’s grave
there was just one moment he almost tried to reach out
and resuscitate
but he chose to fade away instead
so much. easier this way
so much. easier this way
so much. easier this way…
