_{He's watching her hips sway to the rhythm of the war drums.
Dis-dis-disaster, dis-dis-disaster is coming.
And it's wearing silky panties that have
daddy issues written all over them.}

Literature

Turning Into Fiction.

Every drop of doubt that falls Leaves an echo of ripples in your reflection. I want to gouge my fingers into this uncertainty And read you like a book, but The chapters of your dark side make me reconsider. Each page reveals a potential twist and turn, And danger, so much danger for such a fragile heart. What if on the last page I realize the story is just fiction? You are Uncontrollable, your thirst is Unquenchable and who am I to Shut your eyes from your own lust? My hold is loose when fate and Lack of faith are gnawing at your covers. What I fear most is not you waking up to somebody else, But you waking up as somebody else entirely.

we should celebrate

i. i tried to think of pain as a flower, first it blossoms and then it wilts away. but i won't let myself disappear along with it, i won't give you that. (it's not the agony that makes me scream, it's the flavor). ii. and you whispered softly "i'll rip your heart out and replace it with a song, it's christmas soon, and we should celebrate". you've always used my scars as a calendar, as a way to remind yourself "today is tuesday and i still exist". iii. (it's morning now because i can see the sunlight through my eyelids and imagine

Troy

You have too much time on your hands, Love, folding paper cranes with broken fingers, wishing to see northern lights in the eyes of strangers. There are no lions between your bed sheets who understand your hunger better than I- You are licking my wounds; one with the wild. I swear it's you behind these eyelids- untamed and desired by this lonely poetic canvas stained with blood, ink, and words I can't fucking say. You look like a Goddess standing there reading my skin quiet and shameless, proud of the gaping hole in my chest. I know it then, like I know my own counterclockwise heart; I should never trust my own kind. "I'll build

Scarification

blood oranges are beautiful. we can slice them open without a moment’s thought, - their crimson juices licked from our lips like ichor. & that is what i want to be. - scarred fruit, still savoring the promises i sucked from your mouth - to wear like staples along my spine. - i was cut open once.

On self-love

Maybe who she really loves, is the name of the boy she thinks of, while she lines her chatoyant eyes with charcoal maybe the name she really needs to think of, is her own.

Unaware

When you are two and five and ten you are unaware –– of the cactus in the windowsill, how, fragile, each quill bends and breaks and falls apart.–– Twelve years later, on a Tuesday, you dream about a boy who bumps his head on an iron slate and you wake in a cold sweat. You are twelve when you are always bumping shoulders. Twenty-two years of Thursday. There is nothing at all. And you wonder (and you wonder why) each time you wake. The cactus in the window bleeds with you when you bump it. No one ever mentioned frightened things bite. So you have always been unaware.

ripples on a blank shore (#15)

in rainbows with a petrichor veil; you've caught my breath in palms covered in dandelions' dust, my longing, an uncovered explosion of drafts hidden from the both of us. but i reach out, knowing wind-chime silence is a possibility as it has always been; knowing the doldrums of my harrowing echoes could be the only reality i'm pressed against, but i'm more than willing to risk my heart and expose it to the weight of sorrow if there's a sliver of a shot that we can be together. suspended in the contingency of the unknown, i hope your wrung hands red with distortion & blue with disappearance, make your way back to the greying soles of my

borderlines.

i watch you tread gently on the edges of yourself, remaining in the penumbra between all and nothing - a sub-atomic mystery unable to be solved. yesterday, you couldn't decide whether to fuse or fold back together and instead curled inward underneath your own spine like a rose crushed in a fist, only the fist forgot to show up and roses don't grow in hospitals. some days, love, you are almost radioactive enough to be a half-life. i think this is the saddest thing of all because on those days i find myself believing you might just make it.

Literature

Love or Homicide

She watches her children struggle through the pain, Fully aware their efforts are in vain. Twice in her life, with no amount of ease, She witnessed a death by this horrid disease. The mother tried her best to comfort and pray As her loved ones worsened with each passing day. The years drag on with no end in sight. Her mind starts a war over what's wrong and what's right As she recalls the pleas they made in the past, Begging for her to make that day their last. Now, she resolves, their attempts won't be vain. She'll free her children of the increasing pain. Two shots bring them peace and ends their ordeal While their mother gain

Literature

Bulimia

And she's unfurled string In the closet room, A red dress against A black-and-white world. She's crying butter tears As she tries to be sugar-free And extra light, Feather lips and feather fingers. She bubble wraps her ribs To insulate her heart, Trying to keep something in As she forces everything else out. She's got a bucket full of words on her bedside, Vomiting poetry at the dead of night, Throwing up angry words and monsters, Clawing their way up her throat. And she's spilt acid On the bathroom floor, Fingers in her mouth and nails against her neck She can't stop retching secrets.

Closer

too close to see, you are too close to me, an eclipsing gaze, all arms across us, i wouldn't leave, if i could go but you know this - you knew of love once you want to know again, you try to kiss me, as if drawing love out, and breathing love in, die again and again, you'd rather, than death you've almost known, too close for comfort

Literature

Not For Me, For You

not for me to feel - nothing as far as i can see, nothing close to me, my heart is deeper under, the black wells of forget, tears are the only stars i see, why do stars burn to live dreams are mute walls; sky is lost to a vapor moon - i drift, not forever is a veil i will wear to cover me from the absence of myself; i will hide behind the anonymity of trees, for you to feel left behind

Literature

She Dances With Fire

She dances with fire, a dragon in tow. Twirling with flames; graceful and slow She dances tonight, in a city of ash. Her feet leaving footprints, where the sand will splash. Quietly mourning, as time goes by; Where once she beheld a home in her eyes... Yet naught but the barest of bones remain, And so she dances, to soothe the pain.
