Naked
Sacrifice your clothes
All those things covering your heart
Give me your body
Willingly I'll accept and feel away any
Blockade that has kept you from me
I want to feel your beautiful

forehead to forehead
Eyes peering over the rims of glasses
Arms around waists
Hands pulling your shirt as I whispered through tears
i really do love you ya know

I laid on his chest knowing it was the day.
I breathed deeply trying to cope
As he rubbed my back when he felt a tear hit his neck
I closed my eyes and held tighter
Wanting to take him everywhere
Red eyed and runny nosed
I was so sadly in love.

And I sat.
In his bed without a person to share it with.
I filled his room and saw it in a new silence.
It isn't as romantic if he's not here.
So I sat.
In his bed waiting for the door to open and he walk in glad I'm waiting for him in this peach gown and yellow socks
Hair still curled lips still purple
Laying just waiting
Sitting in a silence that's unfamiliar and doesn't feel like home.
My belly hungry for him to feed me
I'm a bad wife
I don't cook or clean
But I have the sitting pretty and just waiting down to a t.

Where do the lost souls go?
Do they?
dissolve with our tears
heal with our wounds
pass like time

where can we find all the things they have taken from us?
the spirit she's drained from my body
the strength from my mind

lord
tell me why the broken seek to break me?
because as i scream with anger
my lips quiver in sadness
and in that moment i'm hopeless again
wondering if i am the only one born into this

suffocating

I stood in the mirror and looked at everything.
Everything that makes up this body of mine.
I claim as mine and fall in love with every inch.
It's liberating
It's sensual
It's healthy
Because I look at myself,
I take the time to learn this body
Love this body
Own this body
Unapologetically
I stood in mirror and looked at everything
And loved everything

So much love inside of me
I don't think she could understand
Because she doesn't know how to love herself
So it's like explaining being rich to a poor man
It's something he just don't know how to be.
