Sex-Nesia (Haïku)
You do not know That I have a secret Pinterest board That I’ve had this board for years You see, I never had a wedding Just a marriage Never got the fancy dress and celebration My marriage was never something anyone wanted To be celebrated So I dreamed and schemed like a woman does Adding colors and swatches And ideas and hacks And pretty white dresses with pretty lace sleeves You do not know That I have this ongoing daydream Where everything is perfect And we live in a beautiful house with a beautiful kitchen Cats pretend to stay off countertops Laughter and play and fun and love live there, too A world where I get to wake up and kiss you, And walk into the room down the hall and kiss my son So I dream and the theme is the same, like it always is Adding fairytales and promises And trust and faith And give chase to a happily ever after that may just be in reach.

Chasing
I find it odd, when I wake And my hand is stretched Searching And I realize you are not there I had grown very accustomed to sleeping alone The smell of coffee, the scratch of your beard against my cheek, the way your cheeks flush I am always trying to pay attention I never want to lose a minute of this And the days in between stretch like years, yearning and searching for you on the other side of the bed, cold Waiting for the home where I am always warm and tucked into your side

Empty Bed
It is quiet Expect for your snore, medium timbre, and the tiny bit of muttering you let out when I shift And I’ve been staring at you for some time The candle is still burning And I think of how good you look in candlelight And how I’d want to marry you after walking down an aisle lit with the kind of big white candles Your mom has on the stand in her living room right now At just dark In the quiet And then I remember that those are dreams, dreaming awake, I need to lay back down and go to sleep And I snuggle in against your warmth, and I think about watching movies with you on a Sunday, probably some kids thing or something I didn’t volunteer for While my son bounces And I think about what family actually means to me And I have to shake myself back to sleep And a kitten jingles next to my ear And your snore quiets as you shift closer to me And I dream and dream like a happy little girl Planning a fairytale Marrying a Prince Living happily ever after.

NightDreaming
I hate the anxiety. I hate the worry that no matter what, I’ll never be understood for who I am. I hate the comparison. I hate when people tell me to look at where I’ve been, and how much better off I am now. I hate the feelings. How can I tell you that it’s like I was being hanged and I was on fire, and maybe the fire is out but I’m still choking? I hate the feelings. “But you’re not on fire anymore,” you say, ignoring me clutching at my neck and my flailing legs, “so it’s a better situation than before, right?”

Dismissed
I find myself biting down on the words so hard every time we say goodbye I try not to let them escape, I fear letting them escape… why do I fear letting them escape? Is it the worry that the mirror is cracked? That I won’t hear what I want to hear back? And yet the space that fills the emptiness, where I open and close my mouth like a fish, Feels like enough to fill canyons, Craters… I could fill the **** ocean with the words that express how my heart beats just for you I just want to stop being so scared That you don’t love me back.

I...
I know that you are not much for fate, or illogical conclusions or soulmates or any of that silly metaphysical stuff And you know I’m not much for luck, or chance, or optimism or breaking legs or any of that silly superstitious stuff But maybe that stuff is just the same stuff And our things are just the same things And we were a thing That was meant to be And maybe I’m crazy, that’s probably true But only for you love, only for you

Mine
I was never allowed to be damsel in distress. Not allowed to be swallowed by terror and misery. If I wanted something done, if I wanted to break out of the dungeon, if I wanted to fight for my life, I had to do it myself. For a decade, I swung wildly, beheading friend and foe both, screaming through the noise in my head and the blood in my mouth. And then he came. And then he saw. The bodies, the mess, the blood and tears. And he put his hand on the scabbard, disarming. He puts arms around me, disarming. He whispers away the demons, disarming. I was never allowed to be damsel Until a knight appeared.

White Knight
You don’t know That I trace Three words On your back In every language that I know So that it sinks into your skin, So that your soul knows before your ears ever do
