I ran to the washroom and locked myself in. The tears started rolling down my cheek. I tried breathing but instead I puked. I puked blood. My mouth tasted like rusted iron. "God, what is happening to me?" I couldn't control myself and I puked again and again until I lost the count and crashed on the floor.

I woke up in the pool of my own blood. It was dark yet I could still see the shadow. It approached me slowly and bent down to my level. I tried getting up but slipped and fell back in the puddle. It slowly raised his hand and caressed my cheek.
"You are being punished for your sins, sweetie."
With that, I puked blood again but this time it tasted sweet.
Our whisper wars in the dark
Speak louder than the stars
Shining above. Their luminosity
Brightens my skin while I
Cradle into you.
Your secrets at 3 in the morning
Burn deep into my heart and
I keep them protected behind
My ribcage.
I hold your breaths against my *******
While the rise and fall of your chest
Moves like the tide of the ocean
Against the sand of the beach.
When you begin to drown in
The moonlight of the night,
Know that I am pacing the shoreline
With my flaming candle,
Waiting for your cries from within the waves.
Please know that when the wind blows out
The flickering fire, making wishes
For happiness, that dust from dandelions
Will still be visible in the air;
No matter how crisp the water’s kisses
Are against my cheek.
And know that even in the darkness
Of our ocean, when I’m losing
My strength to tread salt,
I will always reach for you,
Both to save you and be rescued.

i
his brown eyes are hiding
all the answers i need,
and opening even more questions,
and i don't wanna leave
this town honey,
unless you come with me,
so let me grab your hand
and take you where
the sun and moon colide,
where the darkness
extinguishes the light,
where the bad outstands the good,
the place also knows as my heart,
where all my secrets lie
and all your sins are buried,
and babe i just wanna
get lost in your eyes,
and show you how to kiss
under the pale moonlight.
i love you, idiot.
If I told you I love you,
Would you save my heart and soul
From being broken?
Would you love me too?
Would you save me
And pick up these broken pieces
And put it together
To make me learn to love again?
I was inspired by poet Lang Leav.

The anchor pulls my foot
      and in the ground I catch the next
    chain. So lightly step between the traps
    just stop beside the Crane.
You'll find the wings are big enough for two
    so why stay grounded-
    ground will stay with you but weight
       will fall away.  
(tornadoes always spin- it's in the eye
    we find the still but still walls spin, Avast.)

Say, cage to free
  my faint and flighty
heartbeat. Lungs breathe light
to sink a little faster towards the floor.

The ocean floods, a space of crawling
  doors and frames, since which, have shattered
   all the window pains I smashed with slavely
  Mirror hatred.
