Boys and men
Love and lust
Pain and
SUFFERING
So much
SUFFERING
But it feels so good
Mmmmm...
Cydney Something Nov 2018
They know how to scare us
And keep our attention
And turn us against one another

They know where we go
When we think
Nobody is watching

They know what to say
To keep us out
Of their holy business

But
What
Do
They
Know?

Let's leave our phones in the hotel room
And go **** in the woods

I find myself
Running fingertips
Over the places on my neck
That you've tasted

Dreaming up those times
As solid as I can make them
To feel the rush again
Of your weight against me

Do you remember
How I taste?
Do you lie awake at night
Sweating out the details?

Does your heart still pound
Heavy and strong in your chest
For that love
You still don't comprehend?

I'll tease myself
The way you do
Only touching
For fleeting seconds

I'll think of you
And find release
Faster than you'd think
And it's like a drug

When I
Think about you
I touch
Myself

Poetry
Spilled from my mind
Like water
From a Tennessee cliffside
In the Spring,

But lately
I've been sober
And the poetry
Has stilled itself
Like water
On a Tennessee cliffside
In the Winter

Despite his incessant
******* and moaning,

he wanted to.
because this life is pain and pain and beautiful pain and you *** and you go and you stay the night in the bed of some beautiful creature that couldn't possibly be the same ***** ragged species as you and you think OH MY GOD I DON'T BELONG IN THIS PLACE and you try to convince yourself that it would be easier to leave because everything is wretched and everyone is wretched and most of all you are wretched but you stay because the mother isn't finished scolding you yet and because death is still afraid of you and there are still deep and aching pains to feel and because of those deep and aching pains there are bright and powerful joys to feel but they will not stay and so we will throw tantrums until our lives are **** and we try to leave again but the mother isn't finished scolding us yet and death is still afraid of us

Once upon a time,
I fell in love with a fish
Who only acknowledged me
When I managed to get him on the hook,
But he swam away
The second any bait was gone

Once upon a time,
I fell in love with a deer
Who only came near me
When I made myself smaller,
But he ran away
The second I started to stand

Once upon a time,
I fell in love with a cat
Who only rubbed against me
When I ignored him long enough
But he sauntered away
The second he got my attention

After a long while,
He came back around
To **** my hook clean,
And to be my superior,
And to fool me

He is gone again
For how long
No one can say
But I'll be here

Pole in hand,
Crouched,
And looking in the opposite direction
*Insert sighing emoji that Android so RUDELY got rid of*

Pink moscato
Parking lot
Empty stomach
Very quickly there

Just like that
The sadness subsides
Although I'm alone
The bottle, my friend!

Warms me and whispers
To my used parts
Through din of city
"Come away with me, child"

"Wanna **** a stranger tonight?"
"Wanna jump off a building?"
"Wanna write that **** song?"
Nah, I wanna drink more wine <3

Your home,
My insides,
Both of our lives...

Give me the chance
I'll wreck
Everything.

**** this
*******
I need a drink
I need ****
I need THE SWEET MERCIFUL ANGEL OF DEATH TO FINALLY CALL ME FORTH
LIKE I KNOW I HAVE TO BE PATIENT AND MY TIME WILL COME
BUT LIKE
*******

You appear
And disappear
And reappear
And it's Christmastime

I know I've said too much
I know I've tried to be nice
I know I've been naughty
I know I've gone too far

I think about you
And her
I think about your Christmas Eve
With a beautiful person

I'm drunk
If you can't tell
And broke
So Christmastime evades me

But you have her
And she
******* Christ
She has has you

I have three cats
Two dogs
Two passive *****
And a future hangover

She has you
And I'm jealous
So jealous
That I might actually tell you

Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
*******

**** her
**** me
Merry Christmas
*******

"It doesn't feel like Christmas"
Well,
No ****
We're so wretched

Poverty and jealousy
Impatience, opportunity
Blessed ******* scrutiny
Of all the shoddy mutinies...

You were a dream
No. 1 on the Christmas list
But Santa never brings
The most expensive things

So a good night to all
And
To all
A good night

But I'll never have
You
And I hope it's
Alright

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
Cydney Something Oct 2019
I ONLY WANT YOUR GROWLING VIOLENCE,
but will settle for your damning kindness

Goodnight
Goodnight
Goodnight

27, coming right up
But I'm feeling Amy
Feeling like 27
Might be the end
Cydney Something Sep 2019
Where you once stood,
Looking away
He now stands,
Meeting my gaze

I really should
Just destroy the pedestal
Cydney Something Dec 2018
But you don't seem to love me...
The things and words and pictures
Only amounted to lust

I want to be wanted,
But you don't seem to want me
You despise me

Everything you said
Everything I did
Now haunts me

I dance after midnight
With ***** in my veins
You're on my mind

I want to be loved,
But you don't seem
To love me

I'll never tell you
How I feel
Right now
Got that ****** Marine on my mind again

— The End —
