I may be hard on the outside
but if you. look closely you'll see
that I am delicate
no more than thin glass
easily breakable
and already shattered
A mosaic of pain
woven in detail to create a dysfunctional me
pieces shoved together haphazardly together in glue
to abstractedly resemble what was once new
and naive

She was an ocean
during a storm
with the tide raising
up
up
up
and I was wading through your frigid waters
with stones in my pocket
but your love was worth drowning in

I soak
My pillows
In tears
So often
That they've
Begun
To grow mold

I wish that, for once when I heard
I Love You
There wasn't an expiration date attached.

I think
I outsource love
Because
I don't believe
I deserve my own

If I was there
I'd run my fingers through his hair
Tell him how much I truly care
I'd sing to him softly
and kiss him loftily
I would talk about non-sense
and everything of importance
If I was there
I wouldn't be in such disrepair.

A simple kiss
one gentle caress of the lips
a small tug of the hips
Sends my thoughts in a twist
and my judgment to miss
It's utter bliss
and complete oblivion
Head over heels
My worlds upside down
with you in it's center spinning 'round
and bringing me down.

I’ve been beaten and abused
My body’s been used
My skin I scarred
My heart is left hard
My mind is weak
My outlook is bleak.

I open the windows when it rains
I watch the sky drown the earth the same way the pain of missing you drowns my soul
I smell the wet soil and think of home
of the way the mountains smell in April
of how the beach smells after a storm
With the waves crashing into droplets on the cities edge
I'm not religious but I pray that if I leave the windows open during the storm a droplet from Seattle will find it's way to me in the desert
One with salt from the Pacific and sap from the pines
I pray for a droplet from your home to find it's way into mine

I want to slit my veins open and watch as my life seeps into the drain. I want my body to slowly and painfully go limp and cold.
I want to stiffen up as death is finally able to grasp what little I have left.
I sit on bridges and watch trains pass bellow always wanting to jump in front of them.
I wait at crosswalks always on the look out for a semi with the perfect grill to rip me apart.
I constantly think of driving a car into the barriers of the freeway and hopefully flying out of the windshield and feeling my bones break and crumble
I'm such a ******* disappointment.
Even to myself.
Everyday I'm too cowardly to do the one thing I think about 24 ******* 7.
My blood boils with anticipation for the one time that I will finally end this miserable existence.
I dream about it.
I wake up in the night with the pain of a knife in my chest and am upset when it's not really there.
I am so sorry that I'm not dead yet, dad.
