Assassin,
I'm a china doll
No, I don't need
I want it all
Stay back, my skins only mine
feel me now and take your time
I'm tired, just go
come in the window
I need to think
i can't sleep alone
Never a man, never again
your number one ******* fan
My knees love me, when I need them they stand
holding me limp in your confection hands
The shadows and alleys are all I need
*tell me it's okay and to get some sleep

Fucking Magician
Calli Kirra Aug 2014
HE TALKS TO ME LIKE IM A STUPID GIRL
really? Am I really?
I can paint and write and play keys
Don't you EVER underestimate me
I can make you squeal and shout
how do you feel now?
I'll rip you to shreds.
You haven't seen my bag of tricks yet
Don't talk to me like I'm ******* stupid. Don't talk to me like I don't know what I'm doing. I've seen blood pour from skin and the light of life leaves bloodshot eyes. I can survive the floods and fires and the apocalyptic outrage. So *******.

Nothing can deter me from you. You are my July and my Winter, my sweet and sour, my skin on skin and everything in between. And I swear I will come to you, and you will wonder where I've been for so long.

My Sister
Calli Kirra Aug 2014
From the coast to the city,
Always sittin pretty
Your blue bug, all Malibu sand and dents  
Making a mess
Enabling and favoring,
My angel with red wings
Giggles like bells on string,
Ring a ling, ring a ling
Our three song soundtrack,
One for day, one for night
One for "I'm here, we'll be so fine"
And you saved me
Oh ***** you ******* saved me
For Noel

Livingroom
Calli Kirra Aug 2014
Turn a light on,
Baby I'm comin home
When you know,
You'll know
I just know
The steam will leak off my writing on the walls,
Probably
But honey,
I promise I'm almost home

Clark Guitar
Calli Kirra Aug 2014
Guitar boy, I love what I see
Use those fingers,
Use those shoulders
Use those eyes on me
It's sticky and thick
Lollipops melted off their sticks
But the taste is so so sweet
Use me, play me
Like your 97 Clark
You won't come down from the high you'll get
Well, we can't all be good

Dinner Interruptions
Calli Kirra Jul 2014
I'd find myself so deep in the void of mania and ardor for you, complete with scorching coals and lava, then I'd become disgusted, pushing you to the edge of my plate like a child does broccoli.

Calli Kirra Jul 2014
,
I'd like to think I'm cold and calculating and unwavering, sometimes I'd wished I was like the people who hurt me, always looking for the next, never understanding or having to retravel the damp, crushed paths of destruction that leaked from the soles of their shoes, never caring to turn and see the thick, salty metal smoke choking it's way through the light. But, I am a lover. A dreamer of only the most sweet, silver realities, realities that are, to most, wildest dreams. I write letters and excerpts, often to people I've never met, often in the position of who I dream to become, often like a madwoman. It terrifies me, how I so often go limp and dazzled by men like gods, on covers, who's voices lull my aching showgirl heart into an almost always fitful sleep, but that I can't get over ever, and I know he'll love me too one day, crying out my name in his virile, fiery tone, to the screeching excitement of electric guitars. Do you let yourself give in to your insanities? Can you claim them for your own, dance with them, let them burst free into your every other area of normalcy? I do, I can, I always have. I am the girl turning the corner, the flashing, fleeing green and red lights in the sky, the faint sound of applause you know is coming from somewhere where incredible things are happening. I've been the hate, and the sick, and the lust, I have hot blood and a heart, and they are pumping, always pumping.

His Greatest Hit
Calli Kirra Jul 2014
I fall so in love with boys with guitars on their necks
I will marry a man who will make me a greatest hit

It's Been Over
Calli Kirra Jul 2014
Like trying to tie a string that's fraying
Like the unwanted rain,
We're staying
Beating a horse,
Bleeding out on the floor,
A conversation fading out with sayings
Like trying to fill a funnel with feeling
As soon as we're through, I'm leaving
Exhausted moans,
Never really alone,
The passion and purpose receding
Jul 2014 · 555
The Purple Mood
Calli Kirra Jul 2014
A little bit sad, a little bit ****
I want you to hold,
Then I want you to grab me
Give me violins,
Then amp bleats and drum beats
All wrapped up,
Then thrown to the floor
Red and blue mix
Behind a bumping door
The purple mood,
When I'm with you

Phoenix Theory
Calli Kirra Jul 2014
Why do I go,
Licking the whip that hits me
Breathing the steam that burns me
And how I try,
And every time,
Kissing the hands that crush me

Missing Mila
Calli Kirra Jul 2014
The kitten went missing
Wide eyed
Pink and sweet
Thinking he means good things for me
Thinking it's real and right to be,
All alone when it's dark
And one less than three
One by one,
Our kittens ran away
I wonder if any ever stay
For baby Mila, RIP.

How to Make a Drink
Calli Kirra Jul 2014
Clicking ice meant almost time to go
Id bet on that, mama showed me so
In a swirl of lipstick and shimmer
Saw pretty ladies in the hall
Through my ordered dinner
Well I watched and was taught
Eventually I knew the drill
Nothing good comes
From party girls raising party girls

Black Roses on the Radio
Calli Kirra Jul 2014
Green eyed girl talkin chill on the radio
Voice like silk, red wine and indigo
Quick fox boy, callin in, but no requests tonight
He's so caught up, so in love, mesmerized by her sweet noise
Playin tricks,
"How bout this? How can I take you out sometime?"
"I'll tell you what, a dozen roses, alive and black, on my desk by sunrise."
Gorgeous radio girl, could make any man cry
A tall dark dreamer sleepin in his backseat tonight
She'd never guess, him, an artist
But come morning time,
Twelve black roses on her desk
"For those green eyes."
For my mother and father, the greatest love story I'll ever know.

Kids Like Sugar
Calli Kirra Jul 2014
I am not a Popsicle.
You can't wrap me up,
In the summer sun,
And save me for later
Oh for gods sake
Say something
There's no now and later
With you and me
There's no candy

Junkie Pride
Calli Kirra Jul 2014
Lady pride won't stand aside
Even in flames and the rising tide  
In the eyes of a storm
Or a crashing car ride
For a wounded wing
Or another life

Calli and Carmen
Calli Kirra Jul 2014
Calli the feeler,
And she does it best
Carmen is glitter in a blackout dress
Calli the artist,
Stuck wild in love
Carmen, the girl in all the rock songs
Calli the painter,
Writing on walls
Laughs in the mirror and the bathroom stall
Carmen the switchblade,
Sweet in satin and glass
In the darkest corner doin somethin bad
Calli the lover
Carmen doesn't care
Both on the phone in their underwear
Calli in purple
And rings on her toes
Amber eyes in the window and momma's model robe
Carmen the kisser who gets the deed done
I am them, we are one

Venice pt 2 4th
Calli Kirra Jul 2014
Don't have to worry,
Boys to drive us, drink up
Tasting like liquor and missing
Kisses kisses I'm so into this thing
Houses like castles
Pools all over
With my sisters party goers

What I Want

For a boy in a band
Calli Kirra Jul 2014
So strong with an iron jaw
And a backyard love for raw content songs
For a heart in shreds you're one incredible mess
For a girl with vices you're the best there is
With your face all red and a heaving chest
Eyes like curtains on fire saturated in gas
Get angry metal baby I'm here to collect
For a girl and boy with no happy endings yet

Ball Pit

Car Talk
Calli Kirra Jun 2014
Ten for a ticket, come and see
Or you could bring drinks for three
"Sorry babe, I'm just busy"
Busy with sisters and powder
Taking my time calling back about later
Put my Carmen face on,
Gotta get what I came for
No time to think it through
I did what I had to do

Fruit
Calli Kirra Jun 2014
Talking myself into trees
k-i-s-s-i-n-g
Angry you,
Crazy me
Writing in the sheet seams
And ceiling beams
Pretty ****** up if you ask me
Sweet, red forbidden fruit
In the tree I talked myself into

What a turn off
Calli Kirra Jun 2014
Don't fall asleep with the dryer on
Don't fall asleep with your heating pad on
With your bed light on,
With the tv on
Don't fall asleep with your weeping on
Your sleep walking on
All the stereos on

Advil
Calli Kirra Jun 2014
Instead of a headache or a twist in my lungs
I'm popping plastic caps till the love wears off
Till the hum wears off
Traffic, stop and push
That's how we are
Bang and bang till my fists are sore
So much purple and blue but I still want more
Purple and blue,
All for you
Jun 2014 · 855
Blue Moon
Calli Kirra Jun 2014
Every once in a blue moon,
I'll try you
Calli Kirra Jun 2014
Hard slick guitar clicks
Like knives in skin I'm so in love with
Your screams they bleed, they make me believe
Teens going crazy all for your team
The sunburn was worth it, and standing was worth it
To see you play, how perfect summer is today
The dent in your chest puts me to rest,
The dent in your chest I will never forget

Always rubbing my eyes hoping you'll appear again
How scattered can one girl get?

Vegas
Calli Kirra Jun 2014
Clinking ice all in our glasses
Tapping heels, darkened lashes
And the lights are all out for you
I swore they'd winked knowing what we were up to
"Free all night for a smile like yours."
Well they coughed their drinks
Us dancin the fake shore
And that bikini was so Vegas
Did it anyway because they let us
"Free all night for eyes like yours"
I know what you wanna do
Bein bad is better
When it's laid out on a strip for you

Desertland
Calli Kirra Jun 2014
Hills spotted in scars,
Are mountains all the same
And a sandy ditch
For lovers to pitch
Their thoughts and play their games
Prickly ladies rise above their spikey babies
Glass bulbs lining lanes

Song Bird

Sounds so good when spoken to a sheep herd

Soph pt 5
Calli Kirra May 2014
I could never fight you, pretty
My co-first command
My right hand man
They couldn't catch us
You watch the door and I pick the lock,
Giggle and sip while he grinds his jaw
Clasp your hands together,
So I can step up
Split it in half so we'll both get enough
It's been a year
Still can't find us
Calli Kirra May 2014
He's missing something
They're always missing sonething
The only man for me it's lit up on the big screen
Kissing made up ladies in perfect fading jeans
Being young isn't so fun when you're seventeen years away from me
I sound so dumb
But, baby

Arsonist In Love
Calli Kirra May 2014
Old friend,
You've been the love of my life
So wrong it's right down to the bone,
Home in your quilted eyes
What a line,
I bet you get this all the time
Even then I was yours,
Guess you've always been mine
You said it quick,
And I thought, I know
Never met another realist before
I'm a girl of extremes,
"Baby I know what you mean"
A lover a fighter a runner a writer
A kisser a dreamer who starts all the fires
I start fires

Just kids, n when they click it's real
Sandbox love, mhm, for real

And I forgive you and you too

Sophomore Sluts
Calli Kirra May 2014
What an ugly word
From the mouth of an uglier girl
Do you know what he does?
I do
I'd rather be explicit
Than be like you
****? ****.
Cherry pop? How bout cherry bomb
Red hot cherry love
Speak those ugly girl words,
No matter
The only thing we have in common can't get enough

yep, I see you. **
