Calgary

park seat, cirrus sky,

haunting memories,

torrential downpours,

scared to roll them

down my sullen mask,

i know they will freeze 

like my hope in the dark,

maybe, i am unworthy,

just heartless, Calgary,

ivy creeping up my leg,

swallowing the girl i was,

slamming my flesh apart,

echoes screaming all 

around how they always 

saw me in the shade of 

addled grains and dust,

i believe all this now,

i am heartless, Calgary,

it comes no wonder 

they never fail to unsee,

how my clock did bleed,

stole some years from me,

this fucking heavy tragedy,

it legit erased me personally,

yes i feel like i mopped 

every sense of my heart,

but i'm not heartless, Calgary.
