Hugs should heal
Without any woes or wheels
Trysts for joy
Fallen in a feeler foil
Beast not boil
East not eaves extracts erosion

Another an adage
From fist with feast or fish

I'm a girl who can't get a grip
Whose mind always slips
Imagination for me is dangerous.
If I could I would
Escape life and altogether
Just go to an external slumber.
Sometimes I scream and weep.
And occasionally just try to keep
From attempting a taboo that
So many do without hesitation.
My mind is dangerous  
For an average joe.
Yet I'm still standing here
Breathing this polluted air.
The skin I wear still has warmth.
The bones in my body aren't cracking,
But although I'm still standing
My mind won't be lasting,
And it's  shattering.
Like a castle of glass.
One hit is all it will take
For me to come tumbling down.
Depression is dangerous.

Conscious
My love for you is past its expiration date.
It converted into an acidic toxic poison that aggressively pumps throughout my entire body
via tightly restricted frost coated veins
by my molding, rotting heart
only when triggered by the thoughts and memories of you ...
and "us."

9:47 I sit on my couch, staring at my bed.

I'm not supposed to lay down until at least 10 o'clock.

It's supposed to "ward away depressive states" so I don't "stay in bed all day long."


9:52 If I go just a little early, that won't be a big deal, right?

No, I better listen. I better try.


9:55 Only five more minutes.

That's funny. We used to use that to avoid going to bed, now I'm using it to count down until I can.


9:58 Do I have everything I need? The temperature is set so I won't get too hot? I've got my glass of water, my phone charger, my fuzzy socks?


10:00 Sweet relief.


I'll never leave you again.

I promise.  


"Depressive state", my ***.  This is the only place I can be safe. The only place I'm home.

at age 10,
my mother pointed
At the small birth mark
On my left knee and said,
"Someone's going to love
You for that one day."

At age 16,
I told her that a boy,
One far away,
Told me I was unloveable.
"He couldn't be more wrong,"
She promised.

At age 19,
She picked up my prescription,
And cried,
"I don't want you
To get your heart broken,
Mary." She sobbed.

The empty encouragements mean nothing,
When a daughter has decided
That the need to be tragically beautiful,
Is more important than the need
To be exceptionally loved.

So far so good
This life of what we did we could
As we did it both together

Thirty years or more we've hummed along
To this our marriage song
From the brightest tunes to one day one of us won't be here

We've both had our ups and downs
Like life notes upon the scale
Some were sharp while others fell flat

We always strove for the right note
From octaves high to octaves low
Where we learned love is so often sung like that

As the the sound of our years begins to fade
One of us will leave while the other stays
As life here has never been a promise of forever

Although forever in the heart
Will be the first one to depart
In the one unlucky enough to be left alone here

Much too soon there'll come the song
When one of us is left alone
I hope it's not me and that it's you

Because life without your melody
Would be out of tune for me
But if you do dear, please don't go too soon
"Do you ever get tired of it? That roller coaster love of yours I mean. Do you pray that maybe, just maybe it would end? Does it keep you up till 2AM thinking about the broken dreams and broken beds on a Tuesday afternoon? Maybe you love it. That roller coaster love of yours I mean. Maybe you love the bite marks on your neck and fists on her jaw and the cigarette burns she gave around your neck. Maybe it’s chained you to her. And maybe you don’t want to go because you’ve forgotten how it felt without this. That roller coaster love of yours I mean."

I'm a rambler.
When I talk about what's on my mind, it's like I can't stop sometimes.
And even when my mouth stops, my mind doesn't.
I'm always thinking about something, and there are very few rare moments when I'm not.

My mind also likes to jump from one thing to the next, so sometimes what I think and say are completely out of order.
This makes retelling of stories difficult at times, and it also makes writing down thoughts very difficult as well.

I have been trying to be better about sticking to things, such as writing poems and writing down things that have happened to me as recollections of a time I may forget one day.

I think I worry too much though.
I worry too much about if I will be relaying my message the way that I want it to be perceived.
I want to make sure that I make sense to others and not just myself, and that I am perceived that way.

There is that **** anxiety again.

One of my therapists once old me that it would be good for me to stick to a routine and have a foundation to stand on in my life.
The funny thing was that I always feel like It's impossible for me to have that foundation, and I also don't necessarily make it easy for myself either.

It's very rare that I finish something completely that I started solely for myself.
It's also very rare that I feel whole heartedly confident in something I'm doing, even if I appear to have the confidence thing down on the outside.

And I guess that's what life is really.
It's just twists and turns that you do or don't see coming, and you have to figure out how to handle them for yourself.

So I'm trying to be better.
I'm going to keep going with this.
I may not be consistent now, but in the long hall, I believe I can do it.

I can finally have a concrete foundation that will stay firm for me.

I will stick to it.
Accountability note.

There is a boy who claimed to love me,
His hands would grab at my waist
Like his lust was cured with the touch,
But they roamed over every body
Within their grasp like explorers
Too afraid to settle down
Afraid they'd get bored with just
The landscape of my body
Just the mountains of my hips
The rivers of my hair
They'd tire of the hill of *******
Of the lake between my legs
And so he never stayed for long.

I realize now he never intended to,
Always his plan was to leave
After he knew every inch of me
And I was stupid enough to
Hand him a map and mark my heart
Right in the middle just incase.
But I am worth more than my body
I am worth staying,
He is not worth baring all explorers
He is not the example for how
Every hand that touches me will end,
He will not be the last
And he most definitely cannot stay,
Not anymore.
