There is three, a trio of sorts
That gives me what I need
For each of the ways I bleed
Sometimes it's my soul
My beating heart
My plagued mind
They all love my sculpted body
But none can I keep
They are all forbidden to me
Belonging to some
Or belonging to none
Too old
Or too young
I will forever be alone in my being
I am merely a fascade
Only to look at with craving eyes
And sensual thoughts
Sultry words spoken
What became of her?
With her raven hair
And marble flesh
Dark woven gown
She glides amongst the luminaries
Seeing who is free
To be with her
Until time to sleep
Who is she?
She is me
Aphrodite
The trio
They don’t hold your heart like I do.
They can’t.
They’re just standing in my grave.
You know you’re forever mine, right?

Gostava de ti — mais do que gostaria de admitir.
Um sentimento que chegou inesperadamente —
me pego em meio a devaneios que me levam diretamente a ti.

Ganhou espaço na minha vida —
A tua voz, que sempre acalmou meu caos,
e em meu coração
agora, pensando em ti, vejo que foi mais do que paixão.

Rezo aos céus para que nunca esqueças
o quanto te amei,
em silêncio,
com tudo que havia em mim.

Com fúria, eu era mar aberto —
um oceano inquieto, revolto.
E tu, minha calmaria —
como a brisa serena da manhã.

Zelo, cuidado, amor...
Fizeste meus olhos brilharem, minha alma cantarolar.
Ao teu lado, vi um futuro.
Foste meu primeiro amor, minha primeira paixão.

Talvez...
A Culpa é das Estrelas.
Talvez tivemos um Encontro Marcado.
Ou, quem sabe,
Simplesmente Acontece.

They tasted better with you
and I could kiss the space
your lips had been
the same ones that would turn to me
and be so sweet

And you would spit out the smoke
from talking lips
take a pause and concentrate
for it tasted the same as me
sharing a cigarette had never felt so intimate

I met him
Tall and black
Intentional and intelligent
My lover

It is Tim
The one who doesn’t just know about love, he understands it
Tim is my biggest supporter, we are team

When am being doubtful, he comes in real
He cares about how I feel
He play the checkers game with so much dexterity
I stay awake to make him take me for who I am
He chooses me always
Various victories you shall achieve irrespective of all vices, I pray

I know what love is because of you
I love you because of your perfection
And I fell even harder, your imperfection caused it
Tim
The sharp smelling prowess of yours to me means acceptance
You smelt and melted in harmony
You heard my flaws and showered me with support
Love who loves you
Loving who doesn’t loves you back is a risk
Don’t risk your heart mostly importantly your life
A broken heart can be fixed but a lost life is gone forever

Moon on barren skin,
Dusk in her finest corset—
Give the stars a show!
Isabella Ford Jun 18
The heat pressed down on my skin like your hands once did—
slow, steady, unforgettable.

My mouth was dry, my body aching—
but it wasn’t water I needed.
It was you.

The Strip pulsed around us—
neon lights flashing, voices rising,
solicitors reaching from every side.

But the moment your fingers found mine,
the chaos faded.
You made me feel safe in a place built to make people forget.

The feathered girls brushed past like temptation,
the phony cops played their parts with easy charm.
They moved through the crowd like they owned it—
but none of them saw me.

Not like you did.
Not with that quiet intensity,
not with the calm in your touch
that steadied everything inside me.

You held me close like the night belonged to us.
Your eyes found mine
like you already knew how the rest of it would go—
how the Strip would disappear,
how the only lights that mattered
would be the ones reflecting off your skin.

Even before you touched me,
my body was already aching for you.

But it wasn’t just want.
It was the way you looked at me
like I was seen.
Known.
Wanted in every way.

A man slept in the gutter like the city had swallowed him whole.
A woman begged, her eyes rehearsed.
A barefoot soul wandered through the noise,
forgotten.

Everything around us was dressed in false light—
but you,
you were the truth beneath it all.

And when we were finally alone,
you didn’t just undress me—
you unraveled me.

Soft at first,
then with the kind of hunger
that left me breathless.

You touched me like I was something sacred,
like you knew every part of me
deserved to be remembered.

I think about that night more than I should.
How you whispered things
that still echo in places I keep hidden.

How your mouth moved like prayer across my skin.
How you made me forget
every version of myself that came before.

People talk about Vegas
like it’s unforgettable—
but nothing there ever touched me
like you did.

And sometimes,
when the world feels too loud again,
I close my eyes
and return to that night—

not to the Strip,
but to you.
it rests in a box — unworn, untouched.
a pink medallion on a thread,
carefully guarded, like a best-kept secret.
the tale of a flame sparks a sudden wonder—
pillows, scents, a shy, sweet blunder.
I’m haunted again by a senseless memory
of wine-soaked evenings—pleasant, temporary.
we were never anything at all.
no debts to pay, no love to call.
and still, your trace remains in my mind.
a bond of secrets, the silent kind.
I could throw it into the river, set it free,
so I no longer feel its weight on me.
but part of me still leans into the ache.

there’s a necklace in my pocket.

Was it the stars that doomed me?
Or your seraphic seeming face,
doe eyed with
soft rosy lips,
and a devilish grin-
Enough to make a man
forget about sin...

It was you who doomed me.
Falling can feel like flight
if your eyes are closed,
Were mine?

Our love felt
like a flame in the wind-
fierce yet fleeting,
doomed for destruction.

But my rose coloured glasses
soon broke,
and made me realise:
I was star crossed,
with a devil in disguise.

"We were never lovers.
We were two addicts sharing the same poison."

But only one of us overdosed.
