Copper melted around my fingers,
eyes on me
mine on your neck.
Red.
Purple.
Candles always lit,
the light that cannot be contained in you.
Your body.
So bright.
Safety somersaults, caresses,
kisses, bites,
touches, grabbing, scratches.
Greed and lust together at last.
As you.
As me.
Us with no boundaries.
Skin to skin.
Spirit to spirit.
You to me.

[1] Set of earbuds. Black. Scratched and left to wither away.
[2] Dead pumpkins. Probable COD: baseball bat.
[7] Broken beer bottles. Some white, some amber, some still containing beer that has leeched into the cracks on the concrete.
[26] Acorns. I collected some for Mabon and Samhain. Some were close to shattering but aren't we all?
[85] Honey suckles that looked almost lavender. But they weren't.
[Too many] Different paths to go down.

i met a boy with hazel eyes
which was new to me
since i had only seen
seas and
forests and
burnt honey but
never a painting
he liked poetry that rhymed
which is the opposite of mine
i don't like to rhyme
but i tried and it felt too much like him
i barely knew him but i told him the
truth
even when i knew he wouldn't like it
and he did me the same courtesy as it
destroyed me from the inside
so deep inside
that i didn't even know
i still existed there
i cried because he ****** me
and then ****** me over
and i hate myself for ever
falling so hard for those
hazel eyes.

I thought I was a person.
A human.
That belief seems so absurd.
I wasn't living to you.
You could've called me Raggedy Ann.
Called me Barbie or Ken.
You did something crueler and called me by my name.
Why.
Why did you make me believe I'm alive?

"Rebel Rebel" rings in my ears as
we drive on a haunted road
at 10:00 at night.
"Hand of God - Outro" sticks to me,
a roach on tape,
as his hand meets mine
and passes me a cigarette.
"Sober Up" gets him humming along
gets him tearing up
when we look up off the concrete and
name the stars.
"Requiem" is on my mind today
for he told me about those from
his past
and present
and future
"80's Films" is on repeat this morning
and I look through my photos
to see one of him
smiling and
laughing and
in love with life.
The first time in years I saw him in love with life
even for the length of a song.
