i wake up, go to work, do homework, go to bed.
im fueled by *****, stale prezels, reds, and betrayal
hangover after hangover, i do the same things
over and over expecting a different outcome.
am i crazy or am i just surviving?
no more smoking. no more drinking. no more pills.
detox and start working out.
lose yourself to find it.
i find nothing in all the new beginnings
but I have lost everything.
i no longer recognize the woman in the mirror.
shes empty and thin--why can no one see that?
they see the lashes, the tiny body, the hair
they tell me im intimidating
theyre so lucky to be able to talk to me.
they take what they want
and leave like the rest.
i am no longer living, just surviving

He is a memory i cherish
and i fear there won´t be another
how will I meet someone
who will look at me
like he did
intense, piercing through my soul
letting me know it all
how he cherished me
how he saw beauty in flaws
how he smiled when i did
how he sighed when i moved
how he wished to touch me
how he kissed when i looked away
how he followed my moving eyes
how he listened while i talked
how he loved in all i had
how how how
for him i was a fairy
for me he was my kermit
how how how
how could it be
how could he let it slip
how could he let me go
how could he ...

yesterday, i saw you
and my entire world shook
violently
i was out for a walk
enjoying nature
talking about music and love
i look up and there you are
why
you have already ruined me
over and over and over
with my permission
why cant one of us just disappear?

you always said
your greatest fear
was becoming your
your brother
but even he
knows how to treat
a woman

mel
each day
i fall in love
with someone new--
but it seems
i'm only falling
for different versions
of you.

I used to ask myself
compulsivly if I had
moved on
and whether or not
any of this was worth
the pain and work

The answer,
I moved on when you
****** my friend.
nothing I did, you deserved
none of it was worth it
i drug myself through ****
only to have you,
determined to destroy,
ruin everything we ever were
in reply to my poem: can it still be love
