American There's alot of times I'd be happy to be wrong, which is mostly the times and feelings that I write about.
I wonder if that teacher knows That house she calls a home Is where little children would roam Up and down the stairs we’d go Trotting our feet down like a heard of buffalo I wonder if she can still smell the tea and toast And feel the warmth that kettle rose All those years a go At the place I called home. As she walks in the kitchen, Does it whisper her my secrets?

Did you ruin me? Or is this growing pains? Was it all really black? Or am I looking through rose colored lens? I've yet to feel the light petals your presence brings that bounce on giggles. Or where you even there? Have you even peeked my way? I've been yearning for your gaze. Just. One. Glance. Maybe I've known you growing too. Perhaps you no longer giggle. Perhaps you bask in solitude smirking at memories of your younger self. Perhaps you're lavender.

As I lay now A burning coal melts Through the center of my chest While its sparks light my ribs on fire And my head feels nothing But the cool extinction. my lungs fill with the toxicity. I am looking for you.

Heart
We were at the age where roses could walk, And petals were silk, They carried us to nirvana, Struck with the fear of a child.

Walking roses
Poison erupts through paralysis Without an escape Toxic      Toxic          Toxic

Smoke stacks
Blood drips through clogged veins Like molasses. Breathing deeply, I taste the sweetness of tar Drowning my lungs And solidifying muscles.

Pressure
You liquify me. I want to be that cool drip Tracing down, Down your neck Pooling into your coves. I want to be that cool that ravages your insides, Making you quiver. I want to be that cool drip Heating up from your shivers. I want to be that cool That makes your heart drop From a single gasp- I want you to feel me when I'm gone.

You liquify me
I peel my skin back To reveal my vulnerablity Just to find my nature is to scab. That's not life baby; Life is that time in between Before you fend off the alien And dance with what you breathe out.
