dolores-l-day - Hello Poetry

Those flowers spill out Over the sides like your soul spills out of your clothes Onto the floor in front of me Where I watch in amazement because you're everything I've ever Wanted to be. The smoke of your husbands pipe leads the way Through the door past the kitchen Into the room where you lay With chickens and pottery You tumble out of your chair And I Tumble into your arms as if It was my birthday instead of yours. I would drive a thousand miles to eat your humus and hear your words. You have everything I've ever wanted to have. Teach me. I will bring you as many tall vases as you want. Teach me. I will bring will make you as many flower arrangements as you need.

I brought you two large pizzas. You only asked for one small. You never thanked me. It made me want to drive home without wearing a seat belt. You know chicken is a premium topping, right?

I said I wished it was easier. You told me you didn't want easy- just me. It's a good thing you don't want easy because it must be extremely hard to love someone who isn't there... Then again, everything is easy for you.

I miss lusting over boys who didn't want me back. At least then I had an active imagination. Now I feel nothing. Nothing good, anyway.

You said you're not a super hero. I said you're full of **** It's ****** people like him that deserve to be hit. One punch and he's out. One punch in the mouth. He dropped like my ******* did when you told me about it. You punched a potential ****** You saved a drunk girl. You're a super hero in a less than super world. The Sun's out with his guns out. Have your contraceptives at the ready, Because punching potential rapists is undeniably ****

Punching Rapists

"Don't get old, Bunny" She pleaded. "Don't get old" She begged. As if she doesn't know who ages me the most.

I still reference you in conversations. I still smell your flannels. I wonder how soft your hair is today. I kiss the walls of the shower just to hear the same pop our lips would make. I wish I had endless pictures of your collar bones and eyes. I wish I had endless access to your thighs and chest and that dot on your neck. When I *** I say your name. Your voice recordings aren't the same. I want you to call and put me to sleep with your breath and I want this all without the repercussions. I want you to be my friend. And I want the benefit of you being my lover again.

'Friends with Benefits' don't benefit at all.

I still reference you in conversations. I still smell your flannels. I wonder how soft your hair is today. I kiss the walls of the shower just to hear the same pop our lips would make. I wish I had endless pictures of your collar bones and eyes. I wish I had endless access to your thighs and chest and that dot on your neck. When I *** I say your name. Your voice recordings aren't the same. I want you to call and put me to sleep with your breath and I want this all without the repercussions. I want you to be my friend. And I want the benefit of you being my lover again.

**** Eddie Eddie Eddie. I'm just at this stop sign. Minding my own radio stations and avocado smoothie. Of course you pull up next to me. Of course you look away casually. Of course you're wearing a plain white tee. And don't you look so good in it Eddie. **** So unfair. My car is here and yours is there and I'm trying not to stare but How can I not be aware of my biggest crush? EVER? With his blonde hair. It never was fair how this black girl Yearned for green eyes that never cared back girl. While the sun is always on my mind You come up sometimes and it's stupid. "You stupid **** I think, sometimes. Because she's little stupid- The little girl who followed boys home. The one who would wait for emails before we had phones. The one who grew up and still doesn't know what the **** to do so she calls her mom in the parking lot asking for advice because she desperately wanted to follow him to his destination and learn everything about his day so she could better coordinate her outings in order increase her chances of seeing him again but she knows that's creepy and her mom says so too. That girl, is dumb. Eddie. But you're dumb too. You dumb **** No, you're smart and funny and so **** **** I want to **** my self. I hate being so beautiful and so clueless that it goes to waste sometimes. Eddie Eddie Eddie. You make me really nervous. So **** you.
