what does it mean
when everything reminds me of you?
or I at least want to share it all with you?
what does it mean,
when my body aches to be near you?
when we're together I just want to feel you?
what does it mean
that my heart hurts when I think of you?
that I am constantly thinking of you?

I'm Okay

She was born. I'm okay, said she.

She smiles. I'm okay, says she.

She laughs. I'm okay, says she.

She cries. I'm okay, says she.

She yawns. I'm okay, says she.

She hurts. I'm okay, says she.

She lives. I'm okay, says she.

She drinks. I'm okay, says she.

She fights. I'm okay, says she.

She starves. I'm okay says she.

     Inside

          "I'M NOT OKAY!"

                 screams she.

But

     Outside

         "I'm okay" will say

                                         she

  





                               as



                      she

        

          dies

with every breath i breathe,
my lungs collaspe.
such a pain that i cannot bare,
is it supposed to hurt this bad?
my fear finally became a reality,
one that i did try to avoid.
to see her taking my place in your arms,
destroying the one place i called home.
save me, please, i am starting to beg,
save me please, instead.
whenever i fall asleep,
there you are in my dreams.
and i never want to wake up when i see you there.
our departure came quite soon,
and i was never done loving you.
why did you stop loving me?

every call went to voicemail,
every text was left on read,
and still, so many words left unsaid.
****.

and i remember it was raining, and my hair had gotten wet, a combination i disliked at very best, but i would do it all over if it meant i get to dance with you again.

(but something to consider)



everything is fine.
no.worries.
it's just that*

there is a d a r k n e s s
closing in
on the edges,

and lights swirl
in the p e r i p h e r y.

we are fire
i am the orange ember, the coldest part of the flame
you are the white hot tip of at the head of the match head
it sometimes flickers blue

you are blue
i hate blue, i always have
i am red
making purple sounds like a delightful endeavour
but i am reminded of the love bite (why are they called that)
that you left
it was purple, it hurt for weeks
it turned green

i hate you.
i hate blue.
i hate the white flame.
