22/F/doomed poetess i don’t quite think myself to be human anymore.
If I were to be given the option to **** you, I would do it gently. Lovingly. I would hold your head in my lap as I feel you become a heavy corpse. I would lay flowers on your chest as your breathing slows. I would pray that you are both confused and disgusted by the sheer magnitude of my forgiveness. That it haunts you as you take your last breath. That it haunts you in death. In the end, everything I write is about you.

you.
I fantasize about rejecting apologies from you. Apologies that I know will never come. Apologies that I know you do not have the capacity to even feign.

apologies
If there is a God, i trust that He would have already killed me                                                             out of pity       He would have put this suffering   to an end by now      That would be the mark of a forgiving God.                I’ve never been religious,                but lately I pray every night. Sometimes on my knees until they’re bruised and red against the carpeted floor       as it digs into my skin, sometimes curled into myself    like a dying animal,     my fingers clasped together so tightly that they begin                                                          to turn white and my nails start to cut                                        into my flesh. I beg Him to either save me or end me.   So far, He hasn’t done either.

to suffer feels inherently sac religious
the scars on my body, even three years later, remain emboldened and raised on my flesh serving as a simple yet harrowing reminder that this body never belonged to me— and that it never, ever would.

there is room for you here
slice me open     bleed me dry you tear into me like a            starved, feral animal but it’s not the same, is it?       there’s a difference between                         you              and the wild animal a wild animal acts upon instinct           you       act upon perversions           you have intention a bear would not       do those things

his words like tea unsweetened and bitter on my tongue but now he's added honey and the love is all the more sweet

another dream about him
i spoke to my mother this morning about my most recent ex and how i would still take him back in a heartbeat she said to me "that makes me sad," and the only response i could muster was "love is dangerous when the abuse feels like home"
