22/F/USA One part hedonist. One part masochist. Apologetically autobiographical. All of my writing happens during my commute.
Hold me up By my throat So I don’t end up Kneeling on the floor For your love

“It’s taken me A long time To get to this point” I said My heart beating Twenty two years My mind Has been racing For twenty two thousand It is weird to say Your soul has seen The pyramids fall When in reality You were just born Yesterday

Google search Time stamp 7:54 AM “How many Ibuprofens Is it safe to take At once” Dive bars Wearing leather To a vegan restaurant You pull on the zipper To bring me closer I don’t know what’s darker Your eyes Or your soul Dear god Put it on me

Black heels On a hotel room floor California Maybe I’ll shred your Plane ticket home Let me take this Call real quick A quick rip From reality Oh, life exists Away from the heat Of the space Between us Didn’t you know? Sometimes I like it When vinyl tracks skip I get to hear my favorite part again

All black lace Skin noir Heart noir All- black sweatshirt Juicy couture I thank your gods I’m nothing more Than a broken clock A boredom cure But Some nights I pretend That I’m yours

Graffiti (Part II)
I like the graffiti in my hometown better I knew some artists We would chain smoke Laughing through our cigarettes Leaning against the wall They looked at me And I felt Coca - Cola cool White dress just a little Paint stained, then Grey eyes just a little Tear stained, now I found out I miss the cracks in the vase More than the flowers

Graffiti
I’m just searching for that eternal sunshine The first step onto warm sand Ice cream handed to you Across the counter With a smile The way your best friend Snorts when he laughs Too loud at your jokes That one T-shirt You bought in college That still fits just right And gets softer every year One deep breath At a time I’m searching

Eternal Sunshine
.1% alc by volume Shaking off last night I should be drinking water Instead I’m drinking in the sight Little red marks on your skin From my fingers last night You like that side of me You said you didn’t expect it Because I sip tea Most afternoons And I read books But oh, love I am a wild thing
