a responsive canvas
is that what you want?
a place you return to time and time
again
to be alone
with yourself
to be alone with yourself
so you return
you return and return and return
you don’t want me to breathe
you aren't grateful for reflections
you don’t want truth
you don’t want a responsive canvas

you will remain
on the pedestal
i carved for you
out of frustration in my mind
splinters still remain
and surface from my skin
when it’s dark

i can't see myself loving only you for the rest of my life.
i have too much love/
love that wants to see the world and other people
and hear their stories
and hold them and love them
no jealously
no fear
no guilt
just love\

he says.
Go to sleep,
he says.
I'm happy now,
he says.
I love you,
he says.

What a horrible age to live in.
We are thousands of miles apart,
but within seconds, only a phone call.
Your name is erased from my contacts,
but the ten digits are ingrained at my fingertips.
No answer.
I'm so cold.
I can only hear your voice when you let me,
on the safest nights when you are alone.
This is surely hell.

from myself
from this body that never belonged to me
from the images of you burned in the back of my brain
from reality
from myself

I was content in the beauty of your lies.
All those years.
Someday I will thank you for not loving me back.

Trying
to convince yourself that you don’t love someone is
such
a
grand
sin.
He may be destroying me,
I may be destroying myself,
but to deny my love for him is ludicrous.
