french tonsils
idiosyncrasy Dec 2020
my tongue isn’t
long enough
to reach all the places down your throat
it wants to touch

i’ll have to kiss your ribs
some other way
idfk. happy two year anniversary, love

the space between listening and hearing,
that's where you'll find my hiding place;

where i go when the words get too fast
and the sounds get too loud

selfish
idiosyncrasy May 2020
sometimes
it's hard to know
that people
keep walking
when i
fall.

it's always hard
when you keep walking.
i wish you'd offer me a hand. even if it's not mine to take anymore. even if it's connected to hers, i don't ******* care. i just need you to pick me up.

4/20
idiosyncrasy Apr 2020
if this smoke
buries me
six feet under

at least i'll
be able to
see the clouds

when i'm in
hell
happy 4/20 everyone.

really quick: drugs kinda rock, but pleasepleaseplease be careful and responsible in how you use them. i understand the need to visit that third space that can only be reached through mind altering substances, but please do not get addicted to those chemicals. if there is one thing that is super important for your body, it's balance. please do not od. that is terrifying on a variety of levels for you and your loved ones.

now. i'm not your mom. and you should have fun. but please just be careful. the world needs you <3

that said. light up and pass it around.

touchless abuse
idiosyncrasy Feb 2020
hit me
it would sting
less
than you
walking away

yell at me
it would be
quieter
than you
avoiding my eyes

**** me
it would
be more
merciful
than you
pretending you love me
how did this happen?

'you moved on'
idiosyncrasy Feb 2020
those three words
hurt me
more than losing you
ever did

and you never even

crescent moons in my hands
idiosyncrasy Jan 2020
i used to look like a whisper

soft and fragile
barely more than silence
trying so hard not to disturb
afraid to break

now when people look at me, they see a scream

loud and unforgiving
filling the space with indignation
no pauses, no hesitation
breaking everything

but i can't see me. i can just listen.
i sound like fingernails biting palms

buzzcut season
idiosyncrasy Jan 2020
the hair lands, making black rings in the bathroom
it looks longer when it's severed
more alive on the floor than it ever was on my head
somehow more elegant framing the tile than my face

i just looked
not meeting my eyes in the mirror

when it was all gone
out of sight down the drain, or in the trash
i finally looked at myself

nothing softening my face
nothing distracting from my harsh features
nothing covering up my insecurities
nothing to hide my fear

but this way
it feels real
not even buzzcut season. my head is so cold lol.

but it's worth it. i feel like i can let go.

tired
so tired
of
caring

so i pretended my hair
was everything i had ever cared too much about
the stupid validation that i craved
every incessant insecurity
anyone i gave a **** about, that never looked at me twice

and
i took the clippers
and buzzed it all off
rockin the buzzcut.

nail polish
idiosyncrasy Jan 2020
they paint their nails dark shades of midnight
and wear clothes the color of ink
crying drops of ebony eyeliner
and listening to music angry as black
to the beat of clinking chains on their raven jeans

i think they are trying to mark up the world
with their sharpies
silently screaming "i am here"

i would rather be clothed in shadow
painting my nails in shades of heather
leaving my face bare and ashen
and listening to chords simple as grey
to the slow beat of plain charcoal strings around my wrists

i just doodle in the corner of my backyard
with light strokes of my pencil
wishing to disappear

foolish hope

foolish wanderer

pause
idiosyncrasy Sep 2019
life
doesn't stop

it keeps rushing on
without me

i wish i could push pause
sometimes

so i could
figure myself out
before the moment happens
and i have to be
outside
of myself
again

but there is no pause button.
feeling dizzy
