first
you ignore your medication
to feel healthy

then
you break hearts
to make yours mend

soon
you smoke your cigars
to breathe easy

but not until after
you empty your stomach
to feel full

before you know it
you're slitting your skin
to patch yourself up

eventually
you **** yourself
to feel alive

and
you smile
to hide the sadness
that never goes away

self-destruction
is the only non-destructive thing I know
for it keeps me alive
while driving me insane

White Page Love
 Oct 2015 Jess
Gene
To tell the story of my love for you, I would have to write a book without words...

A book full of white pages,
a book without numbers in its corners...
a book that can speak without ink.

Only you will be able to read and understand my white page love.

I would go out every day and sit under a lost tree next to our silence.
Without ink I would sit there and write to you...
without a word.

The sunset would serve as my dictionary
and memories of you would play music in the background.
"It happened while we weren't looking."
"I'll go with you."
If I wrote something like that somewhere in my book without ink or words, would you write back?

Can a man make a fool of himself writing books without words or ink, laced with irregular white page love?

Words aside ...

The thought of your smile while you browse through my book of white page love -
enough reason to write another page for you tomorrow.
