(Expletive)
If I were just that rabbit

For just one day
There I’d lay
Tucked against her gentle chest
Cradled close in perfect rest
Her breath, a hymn
Her body warm, a sacred limb
And I
A quiet witness to her grace
Would live and die in that embrace

Strussel, you blessed and furry thing
How did you become her chosen king?
Her fingers find you, soft and sweet
You live where I would cease to speak

Her hips ignite what thought suppresses
She moves and bends, and time confesses
I look at her and feed the flame
My hunger doesn’t blush with shame
She isn’t anyone’s possession
She’s a storm, a truth, a resurrection

The only one who holds my vice
With every glance, she melts the ice
She’s fire, fierce, and unrelenting
And I
I ache without repenting

So if I were that rabbit
Even for a blink, a breath, a blink
I’d live a lifetime in her touch
And die
Content
For having loved that much
Apparently the F word is too adult for this website.

Silence was the first law I learned—
not peace,
but punishment.
It was golden,
yes—
like ash melting on the tongue,
bitter and final.

I was born without lungs to scream,
without fingers to grip
the edge of anything safe.
No god to curse.
No name to whisper.

Just this:
an animal
dressed in the shape of a woman,
spine made of scars,
mouth full of truth no one asked for.

No faith.
No leash.
No savior.

I am death
wearing perfume.
I am money
without mercy.
I am ***
with teeth.

And I will walk barefoot
into the last collapsing light
of an unpromised horizon—
unloved,
unclaimed,
unbroken,
and still burning.

I live in the spaces in between
The planes of the unseen.
A shadow stitched from dream to dream,
Woven tight with dark esteem.

I sleep where secrets ebb and flow,
Where truths are whispered soft and low,
In voices you might almost know
But none you’ve ever met below.

I haunt the spaces in between,
The planes of what has never been.
Drink deep my fear
Gaze long into my nightmare.

O ye of trembling, hollow faith
Come drown beneath the whispering waves
Of demons I keep,
In shadows that do not sleep.

I sing in the spaces in between,
Where silence gnaws and eyes have seen.
Death is merely the first command.
So take, my friend, this outstretched hand.

Together, we’ll fade
Into pale blue and grey
Where stars burn cold
From far, far away.

Be still, my heart — why do you wake me?
The day was long and the night ended so soon.
My heart, do you ache?
Do you long for the things you cannot take?
To live a life that feels like secondhand fate?

My heart,
my heart,
my heart —
don’t run away from me.
I’m not scared of you.
Why would you love me?
You don’t know me.

I’ve worn a hundred names in borrowed light,
kissed mirrors hoping they’d kiss back right.
Built homes in glances, burned them in doubt,
learned to love with all the exits mapped out.

No more, my heart. Be still, my love.
The night is here, and the hour is late.
Sleep, my little lamb —
I’ll carry you
into the pearly gates.

Today
I buried my heart.
Do you see it?
Beneath the earth—
Deeper
than words could ever reach.

Beneath my toes,
beneath my skin,
where silence fractures
and ghosts
begin to whisper your name.

My love rests
in a darker room.
Do you smell it?
A coffin soaked
in soft perfume.
She sleeps in soil—
blind, lost,
a relic
of gentler costs.

I nearly leapt
right from my skin
to witness
the ruin she was left in:

Twisted dry,
a flower undone,
cradled in heartbreak’s
faint perfume.

The love I held—
fierce as flame—
now tangles
in the words
we never spoke:

Half-spoken sentences,
tones ignored,
all left bleeding,
unexplored.

She was my best friend,
raw and true.
Do you feel it?
Now I bleed
where once she grew.

Yet still
I clutch her near my core—
a ghost
in flesh.

And if you look closely,
if you reach carefully—
you’ll see:
I am still here.
Still trembling,
still burning,
forevermore.

It hurts,
the closer we get.
The good kind of hurt —
and the bad.

I want to hold you accountable
for my *** drive,
for this fire in my spine
when you look at me like that.

Trust takes time —
I know.
But you make me rabid.
Foaming at the mouth for your heart,
reaching in
just to press restart.

I’m alive again.
You’ve thrilled me —
and killed me.

I keep trying to stay whole,
but after you
there is no forever,
only fire.

I burn,
I ****,
I lick,
I tease,
I bite,
I teethe —
a slow unraveling
in your teeth.

I **** myself
just to watch you breathe.
To bathe in your conceit.
To live this life
on repeat.

Once upon a cracked constellation, a witch made of honey met a thief made of fire.

The witch moved like smoke, soft-spoken but spell-laced, with a Scorpio moon behind her eyes. The thief walked like she owned the stars — Sun in Leo, all blaze and bravado, leaving golden fingerprints on everything she touched.

They weren’t meant to meet, not by maps or mortals. But fate doesn’t care for rules — especially not when it’s bored. And so, they collided in the quiet between two disasters, like a song too old to be remembered but too sacred to forget.

She — the witch — had built her life like a spell: carefully, secretly, with rooms no one entered.
She — the thief — kicked in the doors and laughed at the ghosts.
And the ghosts, oddly, laughed back.

The witch saw in the thief a hunger she knew well — not for chaos, but for meaning.
The thief saw in the witch a softness that wasn’t weak, but ancient — the kind that could ruin you slowly, with kindness and a look that knew everything.

They kissed like people remembering the language of their last life.
They fought like two storms in the same sky.
They forgave like gods trying to become human.

In their love lived Pluto — deep, dark, transformational.
In their fears stood Saturn — stern, slow, testing.
In their hearts burned Lilith — wild, exiled, defiant.

They didn’t always get it right.
One pulled away when it got too deep.
The other stayed too long in her own sorrow.

But still —
they chose each other, over and over,
like a prayer said with shaking hands.
Not because it was easy.
But because it was real.

Because in each other’s ruin,
they found reason to rise.

And though the stars may shift and the gods grow silent,
these two —
mirror and flame —
have already been written in the sky.
