American My name is Jordan
I watched you from afar though I couldn’t see you, and I still wonder where you are, a part of me sees you gazing under the stars. And dear, even with all of the friction, the manipulation and confusion, even with all of the fear I still hold you near. There’s a part of me that will not release you or am I simply still your captive my dear?

Captive
Center of the day begins to unfold Already gone through the marshes and mixes Alive & full, Lick our lipses Do what we can to get our fixes Skin as oily as Honeydew You caught me in a full-on looptiloo

Little Fixes
With grace I see you pace throughout the corridor, concern lavished upon your face. But it always comes back to me and I get curious, what is it in you that I see? That draws you to me? At the end I understand it’s my desperation But in the beginning it feels like magical procession. It’s insights like these, I’d rather keep to myself, frustrations rooted in lack of respect for self, kinder words for the reality- a putrid, decaying necessity of external validation, your hands on me, telling me everything’s ok.

Validation
Placing words into what you feel Cause the layers of your core to peel Whether it's Anger that distraughts you or Confusion that betrays you It's Anxiety that simmers within The good angel seems to never win It's the Sadness that overwhelms for no reason and Loneliness seems to be it's closest cousin Sometimes all of these things that are unseen Seep out of the pores altogether, making it Mean A scene never meant to be seen The only Context that gives it most Meaning Is putting the text on paper, so Rich, so Gleaming It does its part to soothe the Heart and transforms it intrinsically into Art. It takes your inner bag of **** and becomes the Number One Smash Hit. Or you can keep it to yourself in private To make your journal utterly vibrant No way is Right, no way is Wrong As long as you make it sing like a Song.

Writing
Diverted eyes sticky skin, she never wants to look back again. Hushed mouth clenched jaw, most frightened face you ever saw. Faded glory in no hurry, continues to wallow in her worry. Lack of reason personal treason but what is life if you give it no meaning?

Personal Treason
Constrained, I feel Insane, everything in Vain, my mind being Trained, just want to escape the Pain. The riplets of Time, an everflowing Game, nothing different, always the Same, a constant repetition, Sweet Nothing is her Name.

Constrained
Purple pen Cursive handwriting Voices Laughter Sadness Joy Binaries Are what life is made of. Not too much in between. Completely addicted. Or utterly sober. Joyously happy & content Or gray skys sad Too much energy to sit down Not enough energy to think Hot as ***** Or cold as the titanic. When will we be able to find something in the middle? They made me take a medication to put me in the middle. Don’t know if it works. Because sometimes I don’t have any emotions at all. I’d be content with staring at the wall.

Purple Pen
Why can't I fall into my slumber Next to my lover? The days get long but lately now the nights get longer My mind, it races Full of thoughts and faces But then I open up my eyes And see my boo as he lies With peace written all over his face And I think of all of the love that we share, And how much he cares. My mind slows down And I hear sleep arise What a beautiful sound.

Sleep
Used to be just a Four-letter word Before you entered into my World It was just something to be curious about something to Dream about. But now the Dreams are real. Love is still Just a four-letter word A word unable to describe the Intensity the Peace of Mind the Feelings you give me Throughout my whole body. You make me feel complete You make me feel whole. It fills my entire heart And it overflows, Encompassing every cell. This type of love can do anything Only Time can tell.

Love
It can be casual It can be vacant It can be drunk It can be meaningless But when you find the Right One... It can be passionate It can be romantic It is meaningful It is perfect. It is like a drug Taking your mind and body out of this World And when you make that Sensual Connection you know That we are meant to be Locked and bonded together As One Forever
