I'm weathered and weary from shapes of greed Their colors mislead me I am naive But I know eyes that taste Without seeing Now you know me, don't you? But you are just waiting. I am tired of this misinterpreted concept I am tired of our tangled body's, this act between two that is only about you. I'm tired of not being able to dance freely in fear of needy hands and sharp teeth Pressuring possessiveness Climb into your soul and off of my body See that I am a creature of uninterrupted freedom I will not answer to your hollow eyes Your misconstrued ideas of love constructed by a society that forgot to feel That forgot to see That forgot that you are you and I am me I will not answer to your hollow eyes You are not welcome here.

Consciousness in Modern Love
you stay and you're pretend-boy stuck in space like you're alone, afraid-boy you call me runaway-girl but I'm just being natural collapse and explode like space molecules, I rather float on my own than stay the same, boy I hope we cross orbits another day.

Baby sister, keep growing up slow.. I promise to give you the world in little pieces I'll never give you too much to hold And I'll always help you carry it around.

Weightless
I wish I'd fall from orbit and grow in the dirt somewhere. I can't come to terms with life itself because I have too many questions. If you wonder why I don't listen to half the things you say it's because I'm too busy counting the molecules of your breath. As a detached, extraterrestrial floating in a sea of unfinished ideas, I thoroughly enjoy solitude. Colossal tragedy wouldn't give me a perspective anything short of that of a rubber band, pulling me down to the earth for a moment only to plunge me deeper into an anti-social abyss. Blades of jagged titanium churn through my flesh and I can't help gawking at mellifluous shapes of crimson.   13 billion years ago the universe manifested from explosives and sometimes I can't tell if I'm ADD, sociopathic, a poet or if some of us are made up more of fire than human.

Why do you feel the need to make me conscience of the way I appear to you? I don't need to hear you analyze my mood Or the way I talk, walk, and breath Go home and evaluate me in your ******* journal And stop shrinking people to fit into your unambiguous definitions. People are more fluid than that. People aren't their pasts or disorders or behaviors at work that you can sum up in a punch line. What you see is a tiny window into a deep infinite Galaxy   "Be still and listen"

Not chill
I look nothing like my father. Not even my genes left a trace of him.

She brushes her teeth Spitting sins down the sink Splashing water through rivers of laugh lines on her cheeks And wiping maps off her hands She brushes cities out of her hair And undresses her mistakes. She kisses goodnight Lust and   Words spoken like wildfires With a galaxy in her mouth and Stars flickering out on her tongue She floats in mellifluous dreams on stained sheets Sleeping soundly Having worn the world Like the sky wears the stars.
