one single kiss;
Rays of sun
envied
the
illumination of your
heartstrings.

left smoldering.
No warning.
Water washed me,
cleansing impurities:
marks from scratching skin
over you.

I don’t know how to

Energy leaving skin,

The trees outside are begging me:

I can’t move my legs,
they’re glued to the floor.
I’m sensitive,

like my mother
reminding me I have sensitive skin.
Grounded by a force in my feet
pulling me closer to your hip bones.
You ran out of patience
and into someone else.
The flowers are drowning,
maybe I can pick them all
before the TV gets too loud for my ears;
you should know where I keep the shovel.
Softly for you,
all of it.
Everything,
I’d give

Can I stay the night?
Inside of your rib cage.

What am I supposed to say?
I’ll always think of you.

Ice isn't solid forever
I am waiting for you,
To melt
Scared of heights?
Maybe it's broken glass
In your eyes.
I still feel
Feel
Feel you
In my head
Like a pounding that won't quit
I want you more than time
and there is no shortness
of that.

I let you
**** me;
You didn't mean it.
I let you
love me back.
I let you hit me;
you felt better.
I let you lie,
And treat me
The way
I needed to
feel;
break walls and crush me
into
Vulnerability.
I smiled while you told me
Someone else's name;
More pleasure
Than my eyes and soul combined.
I let you dig your nails into cracked skin,
Pull out pieces that didn't match yours.
I let you bite my neck
And taste my tears
If it meant you'd remember my name.

Modern God,
save all from strain
and heavy heat.
Otherwise chosen,
with seven arms
and sixteen feet.
Soot fogged skin,
flooded tree.
Modern God I'm naked;
now come for me.

the parable changed shape;
changed eyes
mathed your spine
in the winter
follies did mellow;
tides rose
kissed gray sand goodbye
again this summer
earth formed crust;
toes tore
veins painted paper
red as you danced through my rib cage

this love is a forrest
you hold the axe
and the gun
and the bag full of leaves you stole
from my branches.

Thin, tangled
carrying blood
from me
to you
against gravity
and everyones advice;
To feel and hear you breathe at night.

Dust on the mantle,
Candles in a box
A reminder
light is beyond the horizon,
To return as quick as it went
And place roses
Where another left thorns.

soul peeled
layers open;
blood or metal?
who gives a ****

It's late
Almost midnight
Your eyes are sealed and sleeping not far from mine
on my mind
As usual
I regret not saying
I love you tonight.
I'm scared you'll get tired of hearing it and forget it means something.
Kinda like the *** that doesn't mean a thing anymore.
I'm terrified I'm losing you to the spaces I can't seem to find
But they exist because why else would you be feeling an ocean between our shores.
I feel it too and it terrifies me.
There's a bridge in your mind
you're on one side surrounded by water turning red
I have a superficial hold that
may break like a vine wrapped around a tree
What's changed I can't quite say
But I need you right now
To tell me you won't go
but you're sleeping
And I'm feeling like I'm about to cry because you mean more than the world
But something is off
And I'm worried it won't come back
I'm worried you'll realize there are girls with their priorities straight
Who don't try to be three people at once
they are beautiful and kiss much harder
But I love you
I can't speak for them
But I think it's okay to say
I'll love you more then they ever will.
I want you right now
to sit on your lap and shrink to half my size
I want you to hold me and comfort me
But what if you don't and what if I'm all alone
I can't hold myself
my arms aren't long enough
I remember what it feels like to have a broken heart and I can't
I just can't right now.
I don't want you to feel trapped because if you want to go,
Go
But realize what you're leaving behind
For a new girl
Who won't know what color your heart is and why
