21/M/On a chair I'm so badass I bake wearing black.
I think it’s an hour to sunrise Breezy winds, weather of winter The horizon of man made light shimmers So little yet so many specks Variant but in unison making a shade of violet That just about kisses the navy sky freckled with turbulent glitter It’s very wonderful. It’s really wonderful. I wish I found someone as wonderful, sometimes. I mean it’s really cold and we barely have anything on, But I’m happy you’re watching it with me. Maybe let’s stay a little.

A Very Backhanded Compliment
Feelings, I think, are fluids. They sway; twist and turn with ease. They come in all tastes and colors, light, viscose, and all in-betweens. They can be contained, spilled. They’re often prone to leaking, and with enough pressure, they’ll burst. Feelings, I think, like all fluids, can suffer drought. Some fade with no remnants to be found. Some, may it be to one’s dismay or comfort, leave something of smell or taste, maybe even a memory of color or an everlasting stain, behind. I wonder if indifference is the sand sea in this scenery. The demise of all that’s felt, no trace nor sign remaining. I wonder if it can overcome the fiery, glowing red of blood-thick anger, the melodies sung in pastel by infatuation, perhaps even the droplets of pitch-black fear that echo loudest. If so then I truly wonder why indifference exists. What the loss of all feelings accomplishes.

Like you don’t have to be a **** about **** but like you don’t not have to, ya feel?
The way she gets worked about the compliments The way she shies away from kindness she's in no shortage of giving A starlight's flicker, if I've ever seen one.

I like her as much as her cat likes tampering with her ****
How many more days ‘til I lose time to your fingertips How many more days ‘til I lose comfort to your embrace How many more days ‘til I lose sanity to your lips How many more days ‘til I lose tears to your grace Weave my days like you weave your words Weave my being so that I’m only yours

Day ∞: You, me, and a melody everlasting
I can't tell whether they eclipse because the Sun is jealous of your radiance or if they eclipse because the Moon wants to be the only one able to glare at you. How fair you are; still never fair to us.

Day 3: A type of way to explain
Sometimes even Moon refuses to leave the sky, the star-adorned sky where it's free and chooses to imprison itself, being jaded by everything but you. It sticks around for your mornings some; It said watching you every night isn't enough, not even for forever, and I couldn't help but feel jealous.

Day 2: My friend noticed you stay up last night, it thinks you're cute and asked for your number. I said no because I like you. Also because I don't have your number.
Would you wilt, my Orchid? Wilt by the waters of ignorance, by the heat of disparage? Would you wilt, my Orchid? Wilt by your stubborn defiance, by your planted loathing? Wilt you may, my Orchid, but in my hands. Wilt in palms that scurry to save you. Wilt you may, my Orchid, but leave your roots. Wilt with trace of hope to save me. Would you wilt, my Orchid, by a common rose’s grace? Would you wilt, my Orchid, when my heaven is your face?

You dug your veins deep; nourished their lands, but they could never notice.
Color because living is desolate without it. It's as if I can hear color & that's why my background is something she'd said. Color because skies & seas dull without it. As if I can feel color & that's why my conscience is in willful quandary. Indigo because Emerald is too zest and she isn't. My, my; how bruises could turn out so gentle.

Forest Green & Every Other
How I've missed you; didn't know how I much I did until I saw you, my friend. You look dazzling this evening. Quite bright. Cover yourself in the clouds it's cold up there. You take care of yourself & I'll try to do the same. Until next time. Old friend,

Come Shining
"... I don't want you to leave" Normally, I wake up mid-sleep. I didn't this time. I did actually, but just that once, just the once to get to her. And we're in the backseat. and she's most precious. Just a taste, just a taste. "... Do not hurt her" I know, I know; I won't. She will, once I wake up. Hold my hand, just a taste. And in a maze of buildings, And in a maze of rooms. All white, pink, & pastel. She's pink & pastel. Most Precious. Coiled like cats beneath her blankets inside a freezing room. "Hey" with a smile. Most precious. "...hey." And she was gone. "... I don't want you to leave"

I waited for you in my dreams, but you don't show up so someone else did
