You're hurting. You're hurting bad.
I can see it in your bloodshot eyes
And how you shy away from smiles
Directed at you. Now your once-had
Gleaming spirit dwindles as it tries
To cut its pain with bleak exile.
But blood is pumping through your veins -
Don't change its course with nails or steel.
Our love for you will never fade, though
You ask me what I'd do if somone else took hold your reins
And replaced you, thinking that would make us feel
Happier - without you? Never. No.
I feel anger and frustration because I'm only human,
But nothing on this planet makes me happy like you can.
I love you, you know that. Believe that in yourself.
So stay with me - you'll be with me,
a heart within myself.

I’m gay I’m gay I’m gay I’m gay I'm gay
it kind of
spills off my tongue
when I don’t want it to
an
impulse
a
burning choke in my throat
falling out of me when I wish it would stay inside
when strangers are around
when
they really don’t need to know
it’s painted on my face
it’s written on the backs of my hands
my collarbone is burning white hot with a tell
and my eyes watering every secret of it
can they tell?
can everyone see right through me?
I’m
too scared to ask
somehow
also too scared to keep it inside
It wants out more than anything
but
she wants to be safe more than anything

my mother always said
"don't fall in love with a poet"
they pretend to love you
but what they really love
is writing about loving you
you are mere words to them
feelings cheapened by a page,
dusty grey typewriters,
and many unfinished drafts
of lovers both old and new,
you are the question mark,
but not the answer,
they are searching for ?
person unidentified: mystery
the page wanderer,
each poem a missing
person poster to cover their
bedroom walls.
they cannot love something
that is in their head
poets are the loneliest of
all people, my mother said.
they write to immortalize
what has long passed.
to live within their words,
but not reality,
lost souls writing suicide notes
and proclaiming it art.

My stupid idea
of you and I making love
is like what poets and writers do
with words and sentences
fancy tongue work and grammar
no touching
no holding
just the movement of our lips
forming the love
that we make
with
words

Fear, true fear is so painful
so hurtful, your body becomes shocked
your mind is crying
fear
Fear to wake up in the morning
fear that it will happen again
true fear is so painful
so hurtful, your body is frozen
your mind is scared
fear

One of the greatest feelings I have ever experienced
was the feeling of invisibility
I sat on the floor in front of the auditorium
waiting for the class before me to be let out
just reading a book and listening to music
A few minutes passed
The class was released from their professors grip for then night
a swarm of kids left the room
I stayed on the floor reading
not being noticed
Alone
I watched from over the peripheral of my book at all the legs passing by
No one noticed me
No one tripped over me
I was ignored
I felt like I had stopped time
I felt like I'd mastered the art
of being invisible

If you were broken, and i had the parts to fix you
i would work on you both night and day
but, i'm afraid the parts that i use would mix you
and take the best parts of you away
