Emily Raso
Breaking blood boiling point
spilling over your coffee table.
If I scream from inside will it echo in your shadows.
Crept between the foundations of each wall,
blooming over hand-grenade fights exploding in the corner.
Bask in it all, the sweat forms columns I want to run through but your structures are high.
Break a brick, smash and hit. squeeze hands,
catch a glimpse,
filter the frame.
Paint it black just to start over again.

i've now
realized the fear
of every newlywed

because

the wrong person

I’m pretty sure I’m actually a nuisance, and the few people who bother to let me stay around would prefer to not have me

i gave you all i had.
my time. my love. my effort.

all you had to give me was worry.
worry that i wasn't enough.

i repent you now.
you broke me.
no one will be able to fix me.

maybe one day i'll fix myself.
until then,
i am
broken.

I'm the warm cup of coffee
he drinks every morning,
but today he's forgotten me

I've been waiting for his
mouth to swallow me all day,
and I'm losing my warmth with
each time he forgets to drink me

After months,
his tongue longed for my sweet taste,
but now I'm cold, bitter, and sour
I’m angry and hurt.

I don't need
friends like Judas and Brutus.
It seems as though they're everywhere.
I've even had a few Delilah's in my life.
They have exploited my
weaknesses for their own gain.
Whether it's a knife in the back,
a few pieces of silver, or a kiss
they are all betrayers;
the rotten fruit of the earth.
So this short ditty goes out to them
and their kind.
Stay away from me.
and go **** yourself.
Sorry it's not real poetic.

when ever i hear your name
my heart instantly
sinks
to the bottom of a
sea.

Have you ever felt like you just disappeared
Lost
Forgotten
Like a faded picture through the years
Only holding on to memories yet holding back the tears
Screaming and crying but no one can hear
A daily struggle tackling your fears
Alone....
