my name is juliana and i admit to being aesthete
It was a moment so chilling when I realized I had feelings for you again. Yes, again. This rotation of endless "agains" has kept me up day and night in anger, love, lust, but most of all, confusion. This relation we have is driven by ****** jabs and hurtful comments designed to inflict the most pain on each other. This "again" that I feel will fade into nothing more than another hatred for you. But just like every other time, soon we will both start gazing at each other from across the room and quickly looking away as though the other hadn't seen our eyes on their face; We will begin once again lose the offensive spews and our small conversations will evolve into tense talks with blushed cheeks and hot ears; Yet somehow, I cannot get enough of this cycle of "agains". It is addictive like your personality. It is an obsession like your ability to make me crazy. I am crazy for you, but at the same time I fear that this ***** craze with wear off and we will be left with nothing but silence. Could this be true admiration for one another? Is this chemical? Or is this passionate relationship powered on by our teenage hormones and sexually-frustrated bodies? Just tell me what you want. If you are happy, I will be content. I guess, if you look at our situation from afar, you could say we're in love. I’d disagree. This is nothing but an infatuation between two people both sharing one common thing: somebody who they can imitate passionate love with again and again. I crave your physical touch and your boyish humor. I need your attention most of all. You need it too; you need me more than I need you. How you wish to brush your lips against mine and feel my body and hold my hand and be mine. Nonetheless I wish for that too. Badly. Nightly I torture myself over what to think, what to want. But every time this happens, I push you away. And the cycle of "agains" return, only to ruin us inside even more.

my mom gave me a lovely pair of pajama bottoms sewn from baby pink satin with cream lace edges. i loved to wear those frilly little shorts day and night and night and day until i realized something not-so-lovely. they soon became a lacy representation of your see-through personality with the way my ******* showed through.

no. 13 (frills are fake)
if i had one wish it'd be to capture the darkness in your pupils and store it in a glass vial; so whenever it felt necessary i could pour the cosmos from your eyes and feel as luminous as the stars

no. 12 (the girl with the liquid stars)
i have a rope around my neck and it's  sliding             tighter                   and                       tighter on my throat.                   my life is in peril             for a string of corded jute has proven stronger than man

no. 11 (the noose)
you petty people should thank me for all the work i've done. what work, may you ask? why, have you not read a classic? have you not heard beautiful orchestral music? don't tell me i'm worthless! for from my invisible ***** have sprung millions of brilliant works admired by humans on a daily basis. why do humans seek love when the route to me is less ragged? what did love ever bring to the table? artwork? literature? no! the novels you read about passionate lovers springs from the very emotion that i behold! love never typed or scripted or sang or acted for it is me--sadness!--who spins the earth. he's crazed! you may gasp but when my influence finds you it'll seep from the music notes and drip from printed words like the blood of a slit vein (which, may i humbly add, i have also given rise to) and overcome your mind likewise to the countless others doubtful of my solitary strength. but nonetheless my beautiful wrath is here to stay in the form of human emotion and creation but i will never succumb to my own nature because frankly i enjoy my work.

no. 8 (hex//capture//keep)
the word i is the most interesting of all letters and words because i contains all of your raw emotions and raw ideas     because i drives all of humanity to succeed and conquer         because i withholds the secret to inner thought and inner feeling but the word us is the most fascinating of all by far because us contains all of our accomplishments and successes     because us drives all of our passion to love and intensity to love         because us withholds the secret to eternal happiness and eternal love

no. 7 (i)
tell me, my love, why do the birds sing while humans are killed? (because they are oblivious, you said.) explain to me, my love, why do humans **** while the birds sing? (because we are evil, you said.) so tell me, my love, are the birds just like humans, and are humans just like the birds? (yes, because we are both ignorant, you said.)

no. 6 (a birdsong concierto accompanied by bullet shells)
my knees are weak and        i wish nothing more but for you to steady them by pressing your wine lips to mine        and moving to the hymn of my shivers and keeping tempo to the beat of my heart. my eyes are tired and        i wish nothing more but for you to relieve them by humming a tune into my ear        and breathing to the rhythm of my bloodstream and sleeping to the sound of silence
