i touched something....
it was bethnal green and i thought it was a mermaid
it bit me!
so i went back to normal girls.
but they bite harder.
at first it's fun; things are removed.........
then you realize there's nothing left
you can't move. or speak.
you're just 2 eyeballs - watching the party go on.
must it?

Jail cell walls made of messages in bottles sent to people who would never see the words therein
Love has always felt like a prison sentence

the rules of war are not unlike those of love -
make the punishment 10 times worse than the crime.
i waited outside the store
and wasn't sure if i should fall into the concrete
or fly away
would either have mattered?
take the hollow days
and take the joyous days
and crush them into one, please.
or crush them into oblivion.
i don't care.
just crush.
crush until the poems bleed into letters
and the feelings bleed into songs.
for i am lost.
and you are crushed.
we cannot have both.
the world will spin backwards
its axis reminding us of who we were.
the stars will jump down
in my face
to punish me for not fulfilling what i could have been.
we are lack of return-on-investments.
we are nothing
anymore
at last.

Puget Sound,
shall we break free down from the sea?
Puget Sound,
Shall we break what was once was me?
Puget Sound,
shall we silence the wind?
Puget Sound,
shall we end all that is to be?
Puget Sound,
swallow me now or swallow me whole
The question is,
Will I begin or will I cease?

it was January 1st,
it was August 1st.
the coldest of days,
and the hottest.
I put my life on hold,
so you could have little trinkets of victory,
and failed to collect any of my own.
I took a 5 month respite.
you couldn't even be there when I woke up.
you got your trophy.
congratulations.
the plan will fall inwards.
i still get my way every day.
you just don't see it,
but you will.

i were as brave as the rain
because
they are not afraid to
fall*

had i made th other choice
would you have wrestled with me
the demons of Hell?
would i be here right now?
where are you?
safely in the arms of another?
did i make the wrong choice?
did you cry at all?
am i here?
are either of us wondering?
did you wonder for a split second
why this might happen?
am i doomed to wander endlessly?
but i'm prepared.
better than to see you fall too.

i didn't accept her
cuz the age difference might have driven my girlfriend insane.
i didn't accept her
cuz her beauty might have driven my girlfriend insane.
i didn't accept her
cuz her intelligence might have driven my girlfriend insane.
i didn't accept her
cuz her social status might have driven my girlfriend insane.
that girlfriend hasn't spoken to me in a decade.
lesson learned.

No one loves me
I'm not worth a single drop of blood
It would be wasted
If you spilt it for me
And dry your tears
For I'm the only one that has to cry
This time,
So there's no use shedding them for me
Sometimes, I wish I knew
How to disappear completely
So no one would remember my voice
Have no memories with me
I feel like life
Would merrily move along
If I were just simply
Gone
Gone
Gone.

there were times
detached coherence
and unforgiving circumstances................
somewhere between the weeping wall and our bedroom door
there lied a cry
for validation
for sleep
for PEACE
but that was not to happen
it wasn't "in the cards" you said.
