Cydney Something
As much as I try
To pretend that I'm fine,
I know that I'm
Not.

I wrote you a letter
That I might just
Burn

When
Will
I
Learn?

I could be
Anywhere,
But I wannabe
With you

What say you?

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Writing these stupid things keeps me alive,
And, ya know what? Kinda,
So do you
<3

If you
Are the reward
For misbehavior,

I will scorch the earth.

But he was the only
Purely joyous part
Of my wretched existence

He leapt into my life
And back out
Like a deer in a clearing

Now he is
Gone
And I am left in my
Wretchedness

Alone

He's talking
But not to me
And I'm thinking about
You

Cydney Something
Oh,
I get it.
You just wanted my soul
in the form of my
lovesick poetry.

This.

This is the stuff
They write about
In books where
The protagonist is 17

And finds love.

But not just love
True love
Life-altering love
Undeniable love
Unconditional love

That innocent affection
Giving way
To bouts of
Passion
and
Trust

A depth and breadth of love
Which did not seem
Possible
Until there was
You

For all of your objections
I have a fierce excuse
A desperate justification
A bribe
And a curse

The way you guide
The frenzied wanderings
Of my heart

Will surely make me
The next great
American poet

It's strange
How quickly
You have managed
To completely replace
My suicidal sadness
With the delirious
Happiness of
Love

How did
A gal like me
Get to deserve
Having
A guy like you
Dangled in front of her?

What did I do
To justify
Your sweet,
sweet
Tortures?

That karmic force
Which propels me
From tragedy
To tragedy
Sent me
helplessly
To you

And I find myself
yet again
In a state of breathless
Wonder~
A moth
Reaching for
The deadly kiss
Of your deepest fire

Drunken on
Your words
And every
Drop of
Tenderness that
Poured from them

This is the state
Of my ravenous soul

To Hell, I'd gladly descend <3
