I was born with the softest skin
Shoot daggers from your eyes
And I will bleed to death

Soak in holy water's bath until my skin is wrinkled
Scrub at my skin until I am raw
I am unclean but dirt is nowhere to be found

your eyes
held the universe
and I traveled
into space
falling
deeper and
d e e p e r
into your
ultramarine - cosmos
only to realize
I was just
a speck of dust
in
your eyes

your love
slowly became filtered,
turning the rawest
of honey
to the most
artificial of syrups,
burning my throat as I swallow
-why do I keep drinking?

unwavering love;
your wavering voice
c a u g h t
in the eye of my storm
(oh how I hope my torrents don't sweep you away)

She settles in your heart
like paint
in the fine lines of
your shirt
never fully-able
to wash her out
(the stains: a comforting reminder of what was once there)

Grievance --
a rotten way to be wounded.
all bandaged up, but still hurting.
cry.
To hell with people -- I say I'm a
Rotten Painter
all alone
no more whispered words to color the still-empty canvas
Don't be sentimental
You made me ill
I felt like hell
But Hell is warm and the
flames are comforting

My dear, love has no reason
For the bees still make honey
and birds sing of cheer
The earth gives and grows just for you,
So look around and be thankful, dear

Well, well, well
Something that you don't wish to obtain:
wellness.
Whether it be hunching over the toilet,
evacuating today's third feast of the day,
or continuing to hear whispered words from made-up beings,
not taking the cocktails to silence them
or maybe, just continuing to stay empty,
not letting anything fill the void
Staying sick --
Whether it be of the body,
mind,
or soul,
will not make others love you more,
and it will not make others stay
but it will have them fade away
just
like
you

flesh without skin
cracked and raw
but no blood to be found
eyes with no lids
frozen and unblinking
but no tears to fall
innocence is stripped down to the bone
for everyone to pick at
everyone to play with
until blood falls and eyes are wet
until it is no more.
