not a single look,
not a single word,
not a single glance
did you give me.
if I were not here,
if I had died,
would you notice
would you even care?
not a single smile,
not a single kiss,
not a single hug
will I give you.
not a single tear,
not a single thought,
not a single one
do you deserve.
I want to be loyal to you
But not to the color of your skin
Or where your ancestors have been
I only want to know if your heart is true

And if it is kind to another
I will know you to be my friend
And my heart will finally let you in
Because you will no longer be a stranger

when I met you
I was a ******
To ***
Drugs
Self harm
When you left me
I was drowning in addictions
Self mutilating the body
I gave to anyone
Just to feel anything
Even close
To the way your toxic touch
Made me feel
Found myself scribbling again. Thinking. Turning poetic, artistic, again. A thing I thought I have lost a long time ago. My frustrations, resurrected. So much trouble. Sweet trouble. You are a star. Something meant to be always looked from afar. You inspire me. To be better. To be free. To be me. This is just a fleeting emotion, unintended. No doubt I am but a vulnerable fool. A crass who got high and will definitely fall. Fall into the mosh pit of your calm and silent waters. This, too, shall pass.

I
wear shoes
I'll never fill

What do
I wear
Them for?

If ill
Never
Fit them.
