Dormitory Corner Apr 2019
Hello, Home. My old friend.
I never wanted to see you again,
But in the back of mind
There’s a place and time
That belongs solely to you.

I’ll take an eye for an eye
So that you at least have one to keep open at night.

Words spill deliciously, brimming with well-intentioned mistakes and suicidal laughter.
Lick them up like ice cream dripping down your chin, sugary sweet and oh so fake.
Particular parasitic phrases clinging to my skin that you thought of so quickly.
Take my flesh; ravish it with your sharp canines and torn nails.
Play me like your piano, musically manipulate my mourning heart and make me feel you in between my legs because I feel nothing in my heart.
Get out your anger to morph my brain because anything you make me think is so much better than this.
Need some recommendations for improvement on this one. I try new styles on every poem, this style is tricky.

I break my neck just to watch you
Stab me in the back.

Pull over the car,
There are daisies on the side of the highway, leaning delicately over glass.
Oil glistens on the cement, catching all of the vibrant colors that light could possibly make.
The glow from the sun is so pure, so warm.
Nature can only nurture innocent beings,
Hence the name Mother.
Her baby birds weep a melancholic song over me, but they can’t chime loud enough to drown out worn-down tires.
My burgundy brown stains mark the divets and cracks in the road, only until the gentle rain beats it away.
There is a new surface with the same trauma.
You see a scorched tree and wonder "how?"; curiosity is no longer stronger than comfort.
Please come out.
Outside of your car, there is a whole other world
A world Mother created that I was too young to explore
A world made that I’ll never have the chance to know.
Now I’m with her.
Explore the world and it’s vast wonders; care for it, nurture it
Because one day you’ll be down here with me and Mother

— The End —
