You give me time,
you give me space.
You give me hugs, kisses,
and licks on ma face!

We know it's not a competition.
We know it's not a race.
So we give each other
all the time
and all the comfy space!

You let me change, you let me grow.
If something's off, you let me know.
When it gets dark, we still glow.
We don't get stuck, we let it flow.

No grudges, shame.
No guilt, no blame.
We both know
it's not a game.

but if we may, I say
we should lay around
and play all day!

You understand me like no one else
and you treat e like no one has before.

I was trying to translate what I was feeling as I saw the words forming in front of me and I felt like I was trying to crawl out of the space between every letter, like I was trying to blossom or explode out of every word but every pixel of every letter was holding me back...

It seems I'm stuck
In between the lines

Sometimes I wonder whether or not I'll be able to stand as I sit down sit down why don't I just use my hands and try it?

Sometimes I beat the same idea to death to death to death to death to death...

Sometimes I use the same words until they're ***** rags ***** rags.

but those are the ones you use to wash all that nasty **** off —
never a nice one!

I 'got ants in ma pants! ants in ma pants!

I was alone in
flesh and bone.
Flesh and bone
Flesh and bone bone
Bone.

I crawled into your ribcage,
I crawled into your cracks,
and never did I stop to think
to think of how I how I act.

What we say and
What we do were
not at one they
were at two and
'You and I' were
meant to die 'cause
we only came to finish.

and all we wanted was some warmth
all we wanted was some warmth
but I gave you
pickled poison
We gave each other
poison poison and
I took your tainted blood I
took your tainted blood

What am I, a needle?

Needle needle
need me please
Roll up your sleeve
Roll up your sleeve!
Cut off your circulation
Stop the flow
Soon you'll know
Soon you'll know
Soft skin blue veins
Red sin steel chains
Penetrate your skin
let the poison in in
let the poison in
I need to have you
I need to HAVE you
Gimmegimmegimme
You're mine, you're
ALL MINE!

I was alone in
flesh and bone
I was alone
I was alone

Dad
oh, sick mongrel-tree-tearer!
your poison blood crackled
lightning right through our
interwoven riverways! pour
pour pouring sap now from
our broken branches broken
twigs dead leaves, dead leaf
leave us now! and we are no
longer sturdy here, you took
our raindrops away and you
dammed up our waterways,
we are cauterized! stray cats
crying mrow mroww trying
to fend for ourselves, but we
were fed rat poison, and you
fed it to me since ever, since
I was a little kitten. goodbye
you little friendly sociopath
what are we a box of ghosts?

Ha! *** God? hahaha
You're a ****** 'god'!
a leech, a tick at best and
sure you've got a bright side
but those interlacing threads
that you so easily hid behind
prevented me from thinking and
from feeling and I'm sorry,
I wanted to like it, I wanted to, but
I'm thrown into oblivion
by this power differential and
I'm a suspended particulate
in space space space and
whether it's perceived or
imposed is rather irrelevant
and fully functioning as he
held me close and he
spoonfed me snow and
he planted sick saplings
between my ripe ribs and
he carefully twisted them
as they sprouted out
of my skin my skin and
somehow he was my...
my savior but
he suffocated me
with his kisses and
my neck was never long enough
to pull back from those lifesuckers
and my throat was always numb
from what he put inside me and
it's what keeps him happy
what makes him happy and
my lips would dance dance dance
around sharp shards the sharp shapes
of words but I would only chew on
cotton ***** cotton ***** and
they'd never fall but
my castle sure did
my keep sure crumbled
and he's a crippled
conquerer.
I was just
another thing
to have to him.
I was something to win
