16/NB/The back of the moon Just your average genderqueer teen that is just trying to make it out in this hateful beautiful world.
My lovely, I'm hurting. Will you hold me and ease my aches For the last time? My lovely, I'm sorry. Will you let me dry your tears For the last time? My lovely, I'm tired. Will you put me to rest For the last time?

Put me to rest
The feel of my lips on your cheek Remind me of the sand beneath my feet. The gentle waves reaching for my toes Like your hand reaching for mine The sun hitting my skin Compare to the light in your eyes The gentle wind Of your fingers in my hair ... This urban life has deprived me of the ocean But will you remind me, Of sandy places Of ocean waves Of sunny days And gentle winds? Will you remind me Of the ocean; Of you?

The pain Burns behind my eyes And rushes around my chest And builds in my knuckles And itches in my heart. Its overwhelmingly Too much. The pain Seeps out with my tears And blood; But never Enough. I cannot Function Like this. The pain Is a parasite That infests And infects And consumes me From the inside out. I don't know what to do Or where to go anymore. Because not even death Will accept me. There is no jar of repression Large enough for The pain.

The pain
We live under the same Sun, Moon, stars, vast expanse of sky And God. And though we might interpret him differently, He loves us all the same. And everytime I shield myself from the scalding sun Or drenching rain I'm reminded Of you Protecting me from myself with your presence, consolence, kindness And in shielding me From the dark I realize that we'll never grow apart And that you were never abandoned After all.

Without distraction You have cursed me, ****** me To the depths of my own mind, ... It's dark here, and loud. Loud in the way that every sound echos As it bounces of the walls Of the mind. It's dark here, so dark So much so That I can't find my way Out. It's dark in here, and isolating No one but I And you, my friend My lovely That I have abandoned... .... These are the signs Of the fatal, Of the dying. Repeating The same mantras Going slowly, slowly Insane. Insanity, though Is subjective For the insane sees that they are Perfectly fine. I'm perfectly fine. ... Hello? Are you even listening? Or have I been left Talking to myself Again. Again I reach out For you, my lovely Is the weather nice out there?

In the eye of the hurricane there is quiet...
I miss you And we're still here, Floating in space Among the stars. ... I can't imagine what it'll be like When I plant my feet Upon solid ground Again...

Leaving Again. Leaving My friends My lovely A home For another I've chosen And though I will regret I'd like to think That its the right Choice To make. ... Leaving Again. I almost Can't believe it. I didn't think Prayers like these Were ever fulfilled, But here we are At a road diverged Am I taking the road Less traveled by? I don't think so. Sometimes, though The commonly taken road Is frequented For a reason. ... Leaving Again. I'm sorry, So incredibly Sorry. Know That this isn't goodbye, Please, I don't mean To abandon Just to grow. I won't be there Everyday To nourish you But please, My lovely, Let the rain fall Upon you And let you grow And know That we'll be together Again. ... Leaving Again. Thank you So much.

Leaving
Poetry Doesn't have to rhyme It just has to feel It has to have a heart Of life; a living thing That beats, breathes, Loves, cries Observes, Ponders Poetry Is for the grandest of grand And the smallest of small Both the sun And the firefly. Poetry Reaches into folds And creases And hidden spaces That holds darkness And brightens them With a light of understanding Poetry Is a mirror, a music Is birth, life, death Humanity and divinity Everything and Just words On a screen.

Just words on a screen.
I forget that the Stars are nothing without the Darkness to contrast

Haiku on the necessity of the dark.
Sometimes I fear That all I am Is the reflection In your eyes That picture of me In your mind My name On your tongue A dog Made to follow.
