I will love you gone. Fluttering heartbeats shake trees into homes. Planting feet in the disposible cottages I roam freely from. I love you Brown even though all I've ever known was Green. Once an alive thing now foraged. Barren as I am wingless, Cant turn away from lacking leaves. I will love you deathly even if you dont nourish me any longer. You return greener than before, but sap only so sweet can be found on a dead tree.
Written during seeing a Monarch after asking the universe to send me a sign on if I was doing all I could.

And as I bathed in milk, it became curdled. My heart eventually turning everything sour. It is a magic trick only I know.

If this was the last day alive I'd press my lips to your temple, Id whisper my name hoping to make it eternal in the graveyard of the cosmos.
Written during a night I ached for your attention

Im running out of ways to say "I love you." I guess "Forever." will do.

Ive been dealt this switchblade been shown where to put it up to my neck to draw the most blood. You taught me how to make it all painful. And as hard as I try to, I cant forget how.
Try

Try
You never hear about third chances. Im scared there's no such thing.

My body is a commodity
I'll pay you four whispers in your ear
All the things you'd die to hear
Three eyelashes on my cheek
Its my body I claim to seek
Whats mine lies on the tiles
Wanted only every once in a while.

Lets go away
Away
To wake up in a different day
Today;
A break we must take, let's,
Lets
And forever the sunrise will chase our run
Run
I like the concept of this format more than the actual poem but I wanted to post something, so here we go

I want to give you infinity. Bloom immunity. This could be our forever.

Shameful to feed your kids breastmilk in public, but yet we will feed them bullets in their public schools.
Annoyed with the urgency some people treat something natural and the dismissive nature they treat something urgent.

They sit in their beautiful growth. They are observed from afar. They mark these areas, firmly staked into the ground. All it takes is one selfish, careless person to rip them out. After that, their seeds dont shake and blossom anymore. They decay and wilt. Become nothing more than a dead, pretty thing that use to be.
Written during a walk home from a nature trail after looking at trimmed flowers and reflecting on the selfishness of trying to live in a beautiful moment.

Your kiss pressed against the ashes
left of me

Do I still taste like who I once was.
How are you suppose to love me when I dont even remember who I am
Autmn T Dec 2019
I step out of my armor
and into the stream of consciousness, stuck in between these four walls
closing in on my warm body.
My eyes start to flutter close and my heart starts to riot.
For I couldnt think 'when was the last time I fought these feelings?'
The last time I had them, I had let myself drown.

And for my fears that aren't for arts sake, are truly mine, and I'm once alone again in my mind.
Autmn T Jan 2019
It feels like the more I know you the more I know myself. That shows the beauty of love. I find all my hidden secrets in your abysmal heart. Each and every beat whispering to me "Rest, You're at home now".

— The End —
