I just want to write. Whether or not someone finds it appealing, is of no mind to me.
I've been to hell and back and I can honestly tell you that the only consistency is inconsistency the only stability is instability, the only perfection, imperfection.

I am not beautiful enough for you anymore.

I don't see the color in the flowers which line the path to a supposed never-ending fairytale. Knight in shining plastic, melting with each step that I take. I can't seem to shake the nightmare which depicts your heart slipping out of my hands; Keeping it there is about as difficult as trying to grab water and cup it without letting it slip through the creases of my fingers. Yet, just like the water falling through the cracks of my blank palms, the loss is inevitable.

Your body is hard to the touch but easy on the eyes. I'm a *** slave in disguise, you don't owe me anything more than your throbbing companion. Fed explanations filled with thrusts, moans and scratches, Resolutions created through the exhale of your sleeping body. I'm no more than a cage to poke your stick into and you want me to bite you out of frustration. I'm reminded of my role: lay down. Shut up. Don't look at you. Take it. Roll over. Take it. Take it. Take it. A drunken sigh of satisfaction sneaks out through your lips as if it was trying not to wake your tongue, as any disturbance will cause my body to surrender to you, against any will I have left. The desire to be the one you surrender to is slowly passing. Because with each breath I hold, I find myself still gasping for air.

Slave.
The memories are becoming extinct, her dust has become not so magical swept up in the corner of the dying tree that once housed the imagination of millions. People are forgetting how to get back to Neverland. Youth being torn out of their chests with the force of Grendel. Forts made of sheets and dining room chairs transform into blank cubicles with a broken fax machine. Another day in the life of the "wireless people", constantly living in our technological limbo. Second start to the left, straight on till' morning. But the second star is missing and morning never comes. People are forgetting how to get back to Neverland. Live fast, burn out... right?

I hope he doesn't get it on anything valuable.

My love is coming
I'll love you until the sun rises. After that it won't matter anymore.

You loved me once But never twice. Never warmly, cold as ice. It says sorry in your eyes Somewhere between deception and the lies. Now you're gone And I'm here Wiping tears from ear to ear Don't come back, time to erase, But I'll leave the door unlocked just in case.

Unlocked - quick draft
He plays with my hair until his fingers get tangled, I keep them there in fear that it's the last thing keeping us connected.

Detached.
The willow tree looks like it's wilting more than usual today, As if there are invisible weights tied around the branches dragging it towards the ground. I don't see resistance in the branches; no apparent will to perk up. It's given up. This nature lies so strangely parallel to my life, as if the invisible weights reflect my stance in society. Held back. Hard to break away. Difficult to want to make change.
