****, baby girl
You've got a mature mind
You're wise and you're grown
You sometimes turn me on
I feel things for you
And I don't know what to do
But I'm so glad I know you now
Before there was some distance
But these days you're close to me
There's no way I can resist
The sweet temptation of your love
It may be wrong to love you
It may be wrong to wanna please you
But it feels so right when we talk
We vibe on the same level
I wanna feel your body under mine
I wanna hear your thoughts and your troubles
Help you solve them and forget them
You're so worthy
My desire is to be yours
Even though I know it's wrong
I'm infatuated with her. She's younger but I don't care.

You drink about it.
       You smoke about it.
              You **** about it.
                      You cut about it.
                           You sleep about it.
                                 You stopped sleeping about it
                                       You stopped eating about it.
                                            You keep eating about it.
                                                You swallow pills about it.
                                                      You punch walls about it.
                                                           You kick cans about it.
                                                             ­   You spit about it.
                                                             ­        You write about it.
                                                             ­          You cry about it.

                                                            ­            But you won't talk about it.

                                                            ­ You won't pray about it.
                                                      You won't seek help about it.
                                                 You won't reach out about it.
                                            You won't tell your father about it.
                                      You won't tell your lover about it.
                                  You won't meditate about it.
                           You won't medicate about it.
                    You won't preach about it.
             You won't advocate about it.

       You're killing yourself over it,
but perhaps it's time you start saving yourself from it.
What is your "it"?
I've bolded what I find to be healthier alternatives for coping, opposed to the common and harmful ways of coping that are italicized.
This poem is very personal & I hope you learn to cope the best way you can.

I would liken you
To a night without stars
Were it not for your eyes.
I would liken you
To a sleep without dreams
Were it not for your songs.

Pushing Daisies
Her lips had turned,
A harsh shade of blue,
Her protruding veins,
Deep purple.

"I'm shaking"

She mumbled,
Nervous hand stretched out,
And trembling,
like a wilting flower.

"No wonder"

I thought,
Wrapping my arms,
Loosely around her pale limbs,
Not wanting to catch her chill.

Whenever you walk into the room, my eyes have to adjust.
The light you produce is blinding -- a torch in the middle of a dark cave.
What is that light?
Is it the light of happiness? The light of love?
Whatever it may be, don't let it extinguish.
You're the light that illuminates my eyes and my heart.
I would surely be lost without you.
not much, having a bit of writer's block... anywayyy
I love you, Rach <3 Thank you for being my personal sunlight.

The truth sets people free
I'm so happy to be liberated from all of the lies
That make up the very essence of who you are
A lie
I'm so happy that I get to help others realize
What you have done to them all this time
You lied
I'm so happy knowing that eventually
The truth will reach everybody
And you will have no where else to hide
And no one else to turn to
You see, that's what happens when you spin a web of lies
As big as you have
Every relationship you've formed
Is based off of a lie
All the love you may think you have
Will die when everyone finds out
That you are a no good
Time stealing
Using
Lying
Piece of garbage

She asked me why I wanted to go on this field trip...
After all, she knows I dislike math and science.
I told her the partial truth --
"I'm interested in the stars."

I didn't tell her that I meant the stars in your eyes.

I didn't tell her that I wanted to see how happy you could be, surrounded by the two things you love -- me and science.

*I didn't tell her that it was all for you.
