I just want someone
To love me as I am.
She said.

Denying that, when her wish came true,
She ran away.

I just need someone
To hold me tight.
She said.

Forgetting that the last one who brought her down the stars,
Had his heart broken.

I just want someone-
She said.

Yes, I say,
But not anyone.
Well, aren't we a bit gloomy today...
When you're hungry, you drink water instead
a couple crackers for the rest of the day.
You're stomach begs "feed me"
But you pretend not to hear.
The patterned tiles they tilt and slide beneath you
legs heavy, head light.
All for the outline of bones on your skin.
All for cute collar bones, sharp cheekbones, rib cages, and skinny legs.
Food is HEAVY
And all I want is to be light.

Last Valentine's day I donated 3.3 liters of blood.
Enough to replace the 7.7 pounds of red roses
you bled when you found out I loved myself
more than I loved you.

*It killed me.
So go and find the things that make you feel free

Go and find the things that make you feel alive

Maybe it’s not a whole new path

But the pretty things on the sidelines

Without you,
I was nothing but a tepid grey dust
I wanted nothing more than for the oxygen that I inhaled to be met with sultriness
It was in my nature
Almost how it was in your nature
To fulfill my desire to be kindled

With you,
Flames ignited the fuse
In the skies they saw the fireworks
You were the spark in disguise
You taught me just how fire works
Just pretend that you don't know me

And I'll just pretend too
That I don't have feelings for you
