plant yourself like a tree in my chest, root into my bones until there's nothing left dividing us
Fine.

If you want simple, easy, and comfortable
Then I will walk away right now.

But you know that we're not made for easy
You and I were made for hard, complicated, and confusing.

I am a fighter
And if you let me I will fight for you
But love has taught me there is no winning someone who's already decided the battle is lost.

So tell me now
Because "goodbye" is said too often when I'm with you.

I'm not her
and you're not him
and this isn't us

but they're not here.

So here we are.

This isn't love,
just sadness
wrapped in an emperor's cape
of disillusionment

I just want to remember
what it's like
to forget everything
with someone who won't forget
to remember me

So I lay with  you
because I'm too weak
to stand up
for what I want.

The yellow brick road
is closed for repairs

So here we are.
for the lonely

every time i see you,
i see you
the gears cranking in your head
                 boxes, boxes of information
                                   gathering dust.

on the outside, i see you
bronze and a sky of dawn

but the words out of my mouth are
                                       nothing
they're nothing to you
and when i do speak
my words are choked up,

It has been one year
since my last haiku; one more
year spent trapped in skin.

we met in the daylight
under a roof of rotting wood
flowers in your hair
i am allergic to chrysanthemums, i said
i hate the holidays, she said
mostly the music, though
