For you

Dec 2018 indigochild

A

For you

You say it won't work;
That we need a break
Was it me?
I'll change
So you will love me

I'll replace my face,
So you can finally stand it
I'll shatter my soul,
So you can walk over it
I'll put on a collar,
The leash in your hands

Tell me what you want
I'll become anything
For you

Don't ever change yourself for anybody but you

#dont #changeyourself #4love

note to self

note to self

you are not worthless
because she makes you
feel that way

you are not dispensable
because she chose to
throw you away

you are not weak
because you let yourself cry
and be vulnerable

you are not dramatic
when people hurt you
you are allowed to be upset

you are not your mistakes
i know the weight of every regret
sits heavily on your chest

you are not
you are not
you are not

the list can continue for pages
there is no need for reminders
of what you are not

note to self
you are enough
you have always been enough
you will always be enough

put everything else aside
you are the question
you are the answer
you are still enough

celebrate my love

celebrate my love

mother took me to church at eleven
and as i sat in their electric chair
they told me that i’d never see heaven
told them it was the girl with chesnut hair

father found me in the parade one day
as i clung to a girl that spoke of tulips
he told me no child of his would be gay
i sobbed til she covered my lips

but today i donned my badges with pride
as i wandered around wedding fairs
as i know that someday i’ll have my bride
and love wont just be full of scares

i watched women fight for our own rights
the rights let me celebrate my love

drunk poetry

i have stopped
letting my sober
thoughts and poetry
wander to you
months after
we are over
my drunk poetry
still finds its way
to you
i am sorry
