I wonder if you will let me inside
I have come to flirt a bit
Let me caress your mind
And ****** your thoughts
Let me undress your soul
Let me foreplay your muse till it gets to cloud nine

Pour out the yearnings of your being
Things only the blind can see
Pour out the venomous poems within
Our hearts and souls are up for the cleansing
Put that pen on a paper, dare to dream
Dare to hope in spite the obvious end

A poem a day
Sounds like kneeling to pray
A poem a day
Sounds like a heart with a whole lot to say
A poem a day
Like the ever faithful sun and its rays
A poem a day
Chase gloom further away
A poem a day
Who knows, there may be a soul yearning to be saved

A poem a day
A poem a day
Just a poem a day
a collaboration with Calpurnia Mockingbird*

If you have something to say, say it. Don't bite your tongue, swallow those words down, set them free.

Set them free that I may hear them, feel them crashing into my consciousness and lifting up my eyes to yours.

Make a wish as candles gutter, wish for me, for us, for an end to this mess of limbs and longing.

Say your prayers, kneel before all that you've ever wanted and plead for remorse.

Sing your song, others may dance to the melody but the rhythm will always be ours alone.

Write me a letter in indelible ink, that those words will always stain my world and sting my eyes.

Take my hand, my beating heart within your palm, so the world may know that once, we loved.
I love writing with Cal, I get an idea and she runs with it, I would write with her daily if I could....here's to more colabs sweet girl. Thankyou x

I cried into her shoulder
I expressed my fears
I became silent

Picture a ladder
she says.
Now imagine a ladder
that has been used
time and time again
for someone to reach the roof
even if for just a second.
What happens to the ladder?

It breaks.

Exactly.
Your ladder isn't made of
S T E E L
She can't be expected
to stay strong for
your own purposes.

Send the ladder to get fixed.
give her some repair time.
She's not one to leave you.

But I'm scared
I choke

I know you are.
We're all scared.
We all fear something.

But don't run.
You can't run.
I won't write your eulogy
Because I don't want to
imagine a world without you.
