home is watercolor sunsets and heatstroke street lights on the river we all dreamed of jumping in and drifting through the saltwater dark nights spent talking about what it would be like to get away i crave burning orange peels and christmas’s that sweat like summer now my nose burns from melted ice during smoke breaks the people here are painted with gratitude toward the nothing they’ve experienced -home doesn’t have a name

homesick
together we touched forever it was soft and melted between our lips the bittersweet bite of promises made out of spite two souls that tried too soon i stared at the future and sky eyes met mine

i miss you, forever
i still wake for you in the first few moments of that groggy eyed bliss - you’re still mine as my bedding starts to look familiar the memories that i force myself to forget hit my chest throwing my frail body into every empty space before all i’m full of is you again

lover.
our cycle is a spark this fast burn symphony always leaves me empty craving i’ve tried to fill the hole with every fuel i can think of your eyes are the only thing that make me ignite sickly and surviving in a constant state of smolder honey, we can’t keep living like we’re fireproof

will i accept my surface level flaws my blatant laziness and worrisome nature the too tired slack in my skin a body that curves and hugs my bones imperfectly will i let my self perceived doubt control my thoughts maybe i will today but tomorrow i am beautiful i am soft i am sorrow i am new

reflecting
thoughts ricochet off the outer lining of my brain at 4 am the rupture is deafening yet my family sleeps softly in the other room the recoil is my seized sense of self double vision leads to destruction intrusive and impulsive those are the words i’ll use tomorrow when i apologize to myself in the mirror however apology implies regret and when the quiet night takes its toll the morning dew will wash away my midnight sin

somber bliss
the girl who never had it all felt numb every sunday evening because another week had passed and she still wasn’t living a clockwork routine of staccato detached from reality the build up is beautiful but when you only give half of your heart the ****** is just another week gone a monday meltdown of never finding your place touch starvation

the scared and insatiable desire to love
she preaches about quitting smoking while lighting a cigarette in her mouth i’ve never met a person who reminds me more of the sun vibrant pastels and hair bleach red lipstick and fur coats this type of love lasts a lifetime fleet wood mac hums to the tune of our nicotine fueled conversations it feels good to be the ones you love
