I used to feel so easy to love but maybe
I’m just eager to please
because no one thinks
to love the girl
who looks best
down
on
her
knees.

They step on my knuckles and it’s a compliment
to stand and watch me bleed.
Wrap my hair around
their wrists and smile,
fill my mouth
with
their
cursed
seed.

They tell me not to cry, or think, or speak, but I
have been crushed between teeth
and swallowed quickly
more times than not.
Scared to rot,
they
live
off
greed.

my eyes were closed
but I could see your face
so clearly

my arms were still

it wasn't even real
but I could feel my heart
racing

up to the very moment

bedsheets

syllable
spinning silk

from my ears
and a symphony
from my lips
she turned my
twin bed
into titanic
along with me
and as I was
drowning
she was speaking
poetry
i will never forget

body painted
in black and blue
but just because
i was the mona lisa
doesn't mean
i was posing for you

falling in love
or falling to pieces
i cant tell the difference
anymore

I don't care
if you don't know
how to read between the
lines

If my thoughts
were that simple
I wouldn't be writing
poetry
Jaxey Jan 2021
They say pain
makes poetry
so I wondered why
I hadn't been writing
then I remembered
pain is not what I'm feeling
it's what I'm yearning
in all this feeling
of numb
