I've devoured all of the parts of me
that weren't strong enough
to stand on their own,
flossing with ligaments left over
from weak muscles torn, given up,
gums bloodied by bone splinters.

Visions of them leaving,
evidence such as this I have not
for my claims, just a feeling
that I trust... I have no choice.
What is there to do but believe?
Burn me with your tongue;
I question your innocence
before I obviate my doubts,
piling up like bodies in winter.
There is no room for this despondency.
Your touch an effigy of permanence
accompanied by sea salt -
scents I need to drown in
if I am to ever forget
how your fingers felt on my skin.
My eyes subdued fail to tell
all that my anima screams fervently;
lips sewn, I cannot deceive, but you,
you certainly saw this coming.
Duplicitous cruelty, tectonic shifts when you leave.
Perpetual ivory haunting; I remember everything,
how you built me and beat me to a mass of abdicable flesh.
Too late for limpidity, you call me on a camp adventure
while I'm still singing "defeated", my faith electrified, I ask...
Is it a surprise now they're all gone?
I am not them.

You are somewhere in the sky,
I’m not even sure if you are real anymore.
I will stay here on Earth, boiling, tossing
Wildly under your spell, all the while.

Make me feel again
with cyan sky eyes, destroy
fear that multiplies.

Sacrificial wind,
powerful and frightening,
blew open the door.

My heart remains lost
between indifference and
the mistakes I've made.

Your dark, sweet essence
overwhelms all of my senses,
How do I go on?

I see many stars,
just staring down the bottom
of an empty can.

"Rough", a polite way of expressing my apprehension from the start, couldn't have known I was shaking for all the wrong (Reasons) that you left are in surplus this season; flipping vowels upside down along with my smile, and faded hues stand out the most now; this pale blue follows me but that seems so irrelevant most days. Years pass and as my eyes grow feeble, I see more, more, more, and you are the greatest beauty I have ever seen, your fragile chest and broken bones more than memories for me to launder between the parts of my brain that still give a **** I replaced the decay of my spirit with rotted lungs, with magick however alleged, ritual a key, components fine like the filigree that lined my illusions, dramatic tone and teeth marks make me quiver, alchemical bonds between the ground and I, afire is the sky and my insides turn bone white and glowing under your moon.
Stop spinning ...
The feeling of overflowing consumes me, and abundance isn't always preferred, to tell you the truth I kind of miss all of my innards being contained within me. But each day I feel a little less invisible and it gets that much easier to deal with this (hole) thing, forget the flashing moments of misery in which I could suffocate myself because it's hard to complain, I must admit I've created every crevice and ****** crack that you see on my body with my own devices, like trying to mold clay with scissorhands; This expulsion may be near unpalatable but it seems to me the only thing that helps me forget, truth is I don't know why I haven't yet; just chaotic noise like the raps that flowed from the lips of the artist that I wasn't paying any attention to at all that night at that coffee shop.

Counting blessings on both hands-
worthy company and light
gleaming past the sunsets & quicksands,
my body and love
resemble perfect synonyms,
health and your serenity
carry me through, intuition is
all I know; stopped counting
the days long like molasses
and run on sentences I can't control
any more than this feeling, surpasses
all reason and confidence shakes
under the weight of reality, could have
should have known each touch was sacred
dividing my dreams into crooked halves;
quixotic the way I cling to every
exchange, glances revealing truths
swept under sea with a heartbeat,
pleading for remembrance, proof
of transient marvels and opulence,
lost and wondering but not what if,
instincts sing stationary, staring down a
cliff.
