You who left me,
a child without a home

You who neglected me,
I carry your last name
like a curse

You who forgotten me,
I look in the mirror and see
your eyes staring back at me
I hate that I have his eyes.

I will write one last
poem which bleed
from my wounds

And in its final verse,
I will write a rhyme,
and say, weeping,
what my heavy
heart truly feels
Not a suicide note.

Kiss my hungry mouth
till death comes to kiss

Press your heart
against mine and
abate my misery

Offer me your lips
to devour
to satisfy this hunger
within my lonely heart
The three acts of love.

Here,
take my useless heart,
it is yours to break

Here,
take my wounded soul,
it holds but agonizing pain

Here,
take my sleepy eyes,
they’ve witnessed enough chaos

Here,
take my whole body,
I wish to disappear completely
An Ode to Radiohead, my favorite band.

I am sorry for leaving,
your gentle touch was
hurting me, and your
gaze ate at my heart
N Mar 2020
At night,
aching and alone

I learned how to worship
the glittering fire of my mind

And in return,
it wrote this
poem for me
N Mar 2020
I endured your absence
when my heart longed
for your healing presence
