 Aug 2013 Delusional Illusion
KM
I'm the ocean but you're the sea
You're what flows inside of me
A harmonious flow
From dusk till dawn
Our love can be violent
Or slow and calm
A world above us
Or a world below
A sort of fullness
We overflow
Something I wrote a while back but couldn't find an exact date for. The last two lines I finished yesterday or the day before.
take me apart
peel away my flesh
strip me down to the bone
and devour me
let our bodies become one
on these worn out sheets

take me apart
put all the broken pieces
in a ceramic bowl
and dump it in the trash
replace it with lust
and let's call it love

take me apart
let me feel you
give me touch
kiss me, grab me
give me a taste of you

let all our destruction
pour out of our systems
and fuse in the stale air
so that then you can put me
back
together
again
she's coming over tomorrow and
i hope she gives me what she's promised
...and your hair falls softly across my skin,
my body is filled with light
coursing through my veins,
shivers down my spine,
I look into your eyes,
you glance quickly away,
my fingers pull your face back into place,
your brow furrows but a smile reaches your lips,
you know you can't resist.

My lips find your neck,
so soft and warm,
you let out a giggle as my teeth make their mark,
your body reacts and curls into mine,
my hands find yours,
now let's savor the time.
i'm stuck
just stuck

between walls
and buildings

between soil
and sidewalk

between wood
and paint

body
and shadow

i'm just stuck

between music
and words

ocean
and city

between old
birthday cards
and childhood
photos

i'm the crease
of double sided
bad parenting

i'm the shadow
between all the
books, all the
poems

i'm every edge
every corner

i'm the rim between
sweaty palms
and sweet victory

and i'm just stuck here
being everyone's middle

and somehow that
is the loneliest place
to be.
You see I haven't wanted to write
Since you've been gone

You had the kind of glance that could
Break a neck
And with that you dug into my soul
And drew words out of my lifeless chest

And now I am sitting here
Against your cold cement wall
And I don't know where to start

I find myself holding onto the phantom hand
That had so often found a home
Resting on my leg
I look for your ocean lined eyes
Everywhere I go
And I think of you
With everything I do

It's not fair that you're gone
And I have to live
But
S l o w l y
I
Think
I'm
Forgetting
How..

Nothing* *tastes as good
As his lips
When they're
On mine.

Nothing feels as right
As his hands
When they're
Traveling down
My skin.

Nothing is as perfect
As our bodies are
When we're
On each other.

I am the desert, the vastness of the sea,I am the loneliness in me,
the empty eyes,the washed out skies,the silent pleading of my cries.
I am the emptiness I feel,a reel without the line,the grape minus the sweetness of the vine
and time does not relent.
I am the,
'Sent to Coventry' and all I hear or see
are places she should be
and she is not.
