M/My Library. It never occurred to me in this life. But it slips through now and then. / / Feel free to message me; I’ll get back to you when I can.
You are my favorite poem, dear. But you are so unwritten.

Peach Ring
My ankle is infected and I’m in walking class straight out of marching band. A whole show two whole hours four days straight. Marching Dancing Walking I wish my legs would just give out. Like my mind.

Eating me.
He seems sad today. Maybe his cat died, or his girlfriend left, but there’s a sadness in him. But he still smiles big and teaches with his big, open arms.

My face goes a deep red, melting in like the slap of skin, leaving tension and darkened marks. Wow, more. His hands are perfect, tighter. like a noose, but you give me life.

Slayer.
The prickly surface. Wow. My fingers always find my way to you. But your longer arms, Wow. Hold me while we watch Freedom Writers.

You hurts my chest, and you melt it.
He’s a big man, but he’s gotten smaller. His smile and perks are radiant this 3-minutes-past morning. He shines through even though the thunder is slamming down on the roof of the labyrinth that is the School. He’s really cute, in that stylish, yet masculine man way. I’m really glad he’s here. He makes it better.

Teddy Bear man.
I can’t wait to meet me. I hope they’re happier. But I am happy also. I’m sure we'll get along just fine.

Home with myself.
Choir room. Cold marble floors and hard plastic chairs. Blue. Just like me. But he’s there, I can see him, I can feel his scorn harshly across the room. I can smell him, even after filling my nose with others. His smell. I love it but it’s hurting me. I’m gonna explode in here, I need to leave. I take a bathroom break but I come back and his smell is ten times stronger. I wanna cry. I also want him in my arms. But he doesn’t want me, and that’s fine, but that "second chance" always sits in the back in my pocket, Whether it’s the second or not. And that’s probably the worst part. I love him.

A cold, floral condition, with a sharp pinch in the front of the nose. But it’s an acquired preference I guess.
I look to you a smile. Why is that? I don’t even know your last name. But I turn to you in the middle of our geometry lesson and that stubbly face and gap between your teeth, I always smile.

The boy to the left?
I don’t like happy poetry. People loving and laughing and smiling. I like it when people twist through their ever existing thoughts and manage to tear out shreds of the universe. I like it when people cry so hard they wake up the next day feeling like they could climb a mountain. It’s not healthy. But poetry is life. And a happy and perfect life is boring. I hope you’re happy. I hope you’re sad. But I hope it’s the best sad. Get sad, write some good poems. I’d love to read them.
