She needed to make noise with him Dance her fingers across aged skin and ivory keys Run her hands along strings pulled tighter than life over bones and muscles that quake and writhe together She needed to feel something with her Heat that burned the scar on the back of her hand and cold that made her chest blister more than the sun could dream She wanted music with anyone The melodic fantasy of emotion as its sung by those who've known it freshly chosen and those who've had it ripened over expanses of time She had unrealistic expectations

She can't close her eyes anymore Years of red-blooded memories have left her mind In the darkroom full of her undeveloped thoughts And feelings and hurt that she failed to disband Like the final notes of that song; the one that every Time it plays her skin burns where the Acid of so many stung her before; Wasps relentlessly buzzing and beating; Vibes with the rhythm of her favorite things and A bass that makes her heart clench and her vision cloud And her toes curl into the arches of her feet The arches of her back - broken in the dimly lit Darkrooms, because one could not possibly Contain it all- all of everything, everyone, everywhere; Even when they're gone, they're still there; Behind closed walls - eyelids - fluttering like her heart and Her head, or her bed which has yet to have A tired soul to comfort; There will always be something else to comfort her There will always be something to draw her away from rest There will never be quiet There may never be an end She will never be over

Gasps
I am aching for contact Waiting with breath so baited that I hope anythone will come to find me, just so they can sink their teeth into my neck, my neck that still feels hot to The touches you gave me long ago Which left me so vulnerable, the monsters of my nightmares came to haunt me They are like you They care not for my pain, but love the sight of my blood They love it when I scream, when my heart pounds nearly out of my chest They love it when I fall, especially when I can't get back up You loved it when you stunned me, they share the rush I gave you But you were different for me I loved the ache you made me feel, I loved the way You could steal everything from me and I would Have thanked you I loved your body close to mine and the devilish conversations we exchanged The monsters were bad dreams Loving you was my worst nightmare

Ex Memoirs(2)
Grant me the pleasures Indulge me with fantasies The reality is acknowledged by me Believe me, I understand what you need I know, just the same, what I want I want to leave I want to leave you with your awful lips and Confused hands I want to be with someone who loves me Fiercely and passionately With someone who lights a fire Inside my body And demands I stoke it So it burns furiously for both of us I care for you You The one who has supported me for long Stretches of time But my desires lay with another Someone who feeds my indulgences Who disbands reality; My love

Infidel
She was threatened into a stiff silence Stiff for his hand on her throat and the knife In her back Which he pressed her into time and time again Whispering into her that 'pain and love are equals And beauty is a byproduct of anti-societal laws' His anarchy was fed by submission As if she had a choice with the Pistol at her head and the sweet, Honeysuckle words he traced along her body She was threatened by someone who knew Her way too well; or moreover - Knew the she way she was, and loved her for it; Inflicting pain because he needed to Because her No's were lost in hours of moans Had she not been gagged She would have cried for help But crying had no way of helping her When he came around

Silence
I find myself staring at The distorted image I see of A beautiful woman Curved hips, high cheek bones, Naturally pursed lips; lips that demand kisses Eyes that tease and twist and turn Into dark pupils that hide secrets; Ones begging to Be set free, if discovered by the right person Collar bones that jut out, but not enough to make her As thin as she desires, Enough to suggest she forced her body to be thinner Thin like her waist which flares in abruptly Her back arches and tenses with simple, flowing Movements As if everyday life is a game of foreplay I know her life must be godlike, Her ******* are adequate, finely and fully Proportioned Legs that are strong, legs that are muscle, Legs she is very obviously uncomfortable with Calves that crease definitely Coupled with the feet of a dancer Her eyes naturally squint; Although she is young, the creases in her Eyes are apparent Whether from tears or laughs I cannot tell She is beautiful And she refuses to see how enticing that is

Refusal (Reflections)
Hit me Hard And fast Follow through, I'm counting on this I need a bruise; a bruise from you; a bruise that will Penetrate deep into my body Into my muscles that lack real feeling I need a bruise that hurts And then more and more Until my skin is nothing more Than a manifestation of the pain I feel in my chest Because that pain isn't real, it's empty Inside the echoing cavity of my chest Slice me open and you'll see the place My heart was, years ago, before my love stole it Now I'm left with my hollowness Coupled with a wish that he could love me The way I had loved him Now I'm left with replacements So, replacement, do you think you can do for me What I need you to? Have your way, Just be sure to hurt me

Ex Memoirs
Drown me in your water Shove my face in your general direction Being near to you is the kind of asphyxiation I could live with as I'm crashing Into the bottom of your seas And undulating with the waves you make For me, just for me. The ocean and I will be one when it fills my lungs And you put all of your weight on me To make sure I'm totally submersed In the water that you made because apparently You know what I need better than I know myself Even if that means I'm left with a single Bubble of air A drop of hope in a sea of dominance A molecule of fuel for a fire that could never Have been contained under the water that you gave To me, just to me. A single piece of myself left there until discovered By you So you reach into me and fish it out Leaving me with nothing Nothing, but myself as a part of you

Bubbles
The skies were just as open As her mind was to the idea That beauty is found in all things good She was bad and the sky was closed Same as the gate to the airplane she missed Her last ride to anything worthwhile So the solace she found was on the tracks Of the subway Laying still and quiet The beautiful thing being her blood On the front of the train And her forever closed mind splattered Open across the windows The beautiful thing being the kid Who saw the smile before it happened Who saw the hurt behind the smile Who was obsessed with the relief when It Finally Happened Who found his own relief twelve years later On the same tracks Under the same closed sky

Tracks
Whisper her name into my ears Show me just how close your body was to hers Can you touch me like the doll her counsellor gave to her? I'm begging for a taste of what your lover got On Hands and knees was how you took her As if I wouldn't feel the change Smelling the euphoria of someone else on your skin Your skin was my skin I lived in you while you moved in me Good god an angel swept us from each other Because God isn't good He didn't want love to outshine the stars Love is the same let down for adults As a child learning that star is a ginormous dead rock I'm the rock and you're the sun Threatening to burn me into oblivion Make me molten like you Turn me into fire the same way you did her
