I Am Fire
mae Aug 2020
I am a smoldering rage.
I am something you cannot hold.
Touching me will only hurt you.
For I am fire.

Songs
mae Aug 2020
songs that remind me of you
are flowy and make me
have memories that arent even mine.

"What Falling In Love Feels Like"
is the first.

Hold
mae Aug 2020
Hold me gently
In all the right places
Because I'm almost certain
That your touch would set my insides ablaze.

Hearts
mae Aug 2020
Too far apart to tell,
one sleeps.
Too soon to tell,
the other beats awake.

Will I?
mae Aug 2020
If I run fast enough,
Will I ever catch you?

If I scream loud enough,
Will I ever be heard?

If I show you my love,
Will I ever get the chance to call you mine?

...
mae Aug 2020
...
Will you ever love me?
Will you ever come to me, and tell me how long you've waited to see me?
Likely not.
But I will dream.
I will dream of your words.

If
mae Aug 2020
If
If I were louder
Maybe my "I love you"s would reach you.

Hope
mae Aug 2020
You make me feel like the world might be okay.
No matter what ashes burn my eyes,
No matter who does me wrong,
You give me that one thing I never I thought I would have,
in this crumbling world of hate and destruction.

You give me hope.

Lovely
mae Aug 2020
Missing what I do not yet have,
texts of "I love you" filling a heart that weeps
and it does so weep for him.

Early Morning Conversation
mae Aug 2020
Sitting out on the front step with you
Under stars in their last breath of this night
Coffee in hand
3 a.m.
We talk.

For You
mae Aug 2020
May my heart rest easy,
or shall it weep from yearning?
Will it's tears form puddles in the grass,
and grow flowers out of it's tears of want?

Flowers
mae Jul 2020
I would much prefer soft, for my petals are weak and fall easily.
I am overlooked.
The stars would shine bright above us.

If you speak gently and stay for a while, I promise I will not wilt.

Faucet
mae Jan 2019
Last I checked the sink
Hadn't been full of water, overflowing
but now I see
the faucet is running because he left it on.
I dunno. This one is kinda vague.
