I looked for a poem about hope,
and then realized I needed to look no further then you.
Your smiling faces, and joyful laughs
your kind hearts, and caring words.
You are my hopes and dreams;
my wish that the world will be someday come together
into the hands of what I have given you.

I give myself wholly, body and soul, to you.
To nothing, to the question of what if;
And I will jump into your infinite arms
with my heart swollen and my eyes open.

I want to know what his hands feel like
and the smell of his neck
to know whether I fit in his arms
with my face in his chest
to feel his calm breath
and breathe him in
and my mind gasps
with the hope of finding
a small part of him in this place
but even then I won't know
how his breath feels on my skin

I will lay down and wait for the earth
to consume me
I want everywhere
I want to touch, to breathe in the life of him, them,
they look like they
could swallow me whole.
There is so much life in there grasp
but
I love this sense of possibility too much
I want to stand on the edge
and breathe in a moment that is mine.
not theirs
not ours
not yours
mine.

I once welcomed Death.
I thought I'd be upset if he came,
but then I realized how much worse it would be..
If he showed up, and then left.
How mad everyone would be
that I invited him in the first place.
So at the last minute I cancelled the event.
Sorry, Death.

I have the high expectation of adoration
though it is yet to be met.
But it is hard settling for a warm body in bed
when there are so many beautiful boys
writing beautiful poems
for girls that I wish
were me.

I slept on a boat and was in love with the sea
I was light, I was air, I was weightless.
But the sea has dried and my boat is a bed.
It is not my bed,
but I have made it, so I will lie in it.
It is a bed of broken glass, meticulously made.
It is not my bed,
but I have made it, so I will lie in it.
And I feel heavy
and I long for the days
when my bed was a boat
and I was in love with the sea.

Time has been sustained with the light
it is late
You infest my thoughts
Like a cancer that has taken control of my actions
How do you do it?
Snake through the nerves in my eyes deep into my head
Forcing your words in and tears out,
Seeping over the brim of my soul
Get out, get out, get out.
There is no more room in this heart or this head.
It is so worn from you,
so tired.
Please, let me be, for I am so tired
So restless

May the sun find you when all you encounter is cold and dark
If I am not there let it bring you the spark
The brief moment of joy that two people can share
When their lips touch or their eyes catch in stare
I hope it will find you late in the night
And I hope it will bring you hope and light
let it make you laugh and smile and smother all fear
and may you think of me fondly everytime it appears.

Let me have the courage to do what is right
Let me have hope where there is none
Give me faith in others, and myself
And let me have love in my heart and find it in those who I love.
