Jenna Apr 2019
It blooms with sadness
it grows in the wallowing night
calling out with frivolous colors
making me shiver all over again
Jenna Apr 2019
Reading lustrous chapters
Softly kissing the words
Pages embracing with numbers
That steadily increase
As these eyes age
With a definable yearning
Wondering when a novella
Will begin writing a chapter
About a 'you' and 'me'
Jenna Apr 2019
A reminder that is given
white petals drift slowly
turning brown and shriveled
like your empty promises
drowning in the water
being consumed
by the chemical bonds
that feed your lies
forever pricking your fingers
with the thorns you place
on my body, stabbing myself too
Jenna Mar 2019
You belong with my heart
captured in time, standing still
deep breaths, even when
you are sleeping
nothing can wake you up
not even the dreams
of us together forever
let the blankets cover
all your mistakes, hiding
but don't forget the warmth
I provide when you toss and turn
my hand is always here
when you awake again
Jenna Mar 2019
He insists
preparing his zucchini
paying adequate attention
becoming a cook-off
looking forward to the tiramisu
the event drastically physical
Can someone figure out what I did? (thinking emoji)
Jenna Mar 2019
--The line torturing
its always held me back
staring, mocking, my resolve
it nips my foot
a friendly reminder;
it tells me theirs nothing
on the other side
yet, something scratches
my throat to voice what
everyone hated me for
Was it an opinion?--
Jenna Mar 2019
He never catches up
always behind, chasing
Only meeting four times a day
a red line separates us often
We kiss at midnight and noon,
hug at six-thirty in the morn and night
till the red line passes us
splitting after a single second
till we cross paths again
