Jen Grimes: Favorites

I crave to be near
But you burn me at the touch
You leave your mark on me
And I use you like a crutch
When you smile I feel our spark
And when you frown I just smell smoke
Stuck in a cycle I'm left in the dark
But without you I would choke.

Impromptu

He thinks I'm crazy
When I stop while we're in the supermarket
Because I love this song
I choreograph
And he starts to laugh
At my spontaneity
Yes I might be crazy
Even more so lately

;P

(hearts lost)

She never did learn to love.

*Only how to run.

Each step takes me further from you. I will circle the earth before I return.

Call Me Sara

Secret

My scissors and i keep a secret
(I can't afford a blade)

My mind and i are stuck
(I cant find the key to our cage)

My scissors and i keep a secret
the one where i deserve the pain

My mind and i are stuck
in the deep depression stage

white noise

such strict corners and she didn't
know why.
she closed her umbrella, and opened
the sky.

Sonnet.

Sonnet.

I have never written a single poem
that my lovers could understand.

In truth, all my romantic verse is simple,
self-congratulatory applause

for not falling victim
to the virus of sentiment.

I am a gifted liar.

Even Hemingway was soft...
