Before I met you, I was a star
Pretty far away, but up close just gas
Shining by external validation and without that a black hole
Wanting to be filled with
... anything
I didnt know I could be worthy for just existing
For just taking up space, I matter
And I havent always loved myself
And I'm not sure why you do
But knowing you has been liberating
And loving you has freed me

Am I a poet
if the only time that I can write
is when my life is falling apart

The idea of you and I together is so strange.
Like
the idea of snow and spring,
but even so
Nature can not be helped

*There is no room for you in my bed
My monsters have already gotten in with me*

She never knew that the color of her skin
Could define the type of person she was within
By simply taking a look at her face
You'd probably base her beauty on her race
"Am I Beautiful?" she asked.
*"You are beautiful, for a black girl"*

*Kiss my thoughts, not my lips
Stimulate my brain, not my body*

He told me not to burn the bridge between us
So I lit that **** on fire
Relished in the ash as it fell
And bathed in the smoke it created
After all
Our love was the only poisonous thing
That I should dare to escape
