the night's sun
was bright
but i can't decipher
if i'm looking at you or the moon
i don't even know
jackie Apr 2020
digging through the
closet
and finding
old memories and
feelings scribbled
in short sentences
and stanzas
on
jackie May 2020
on
sometimes i can come on too strong but
i wish you would stop shying away
jackie Mar 2020
passed notes
a series of unfolded words
paper drugs; this one was mine
earthly promises
real quelled assurance
drug of paper, sounds of lies
regressed pain
ultramarine feelings and
gentle smiles

i based it off of how someone had gotten a note that she had been promised something but it was 'real quelled assurance' 'drug of paper, sounds of lies' the regressed pain of knowing that it wouldn't happen like she hoped it would, but she had 'ultramarine feelings' (blue) and they had 'gentle smiles'

what a waste of time
waiting for you when you don't come
the world comes crashing down
jackie Mar 2020
you turn your head towards me
your blue eyes
pierce my soul
constricted pupils
cause my heart to jump
you always jeopardize
my feelings
but i know you
and you are a blessing in
disguise
yet i
i
am a pack of lies

the soft glow of stars in the background and
the sweet scent of lavender with traces of
ink?
jackie May 2020
tears in eyes
laughter behind closed doors
and realizing
you'll never laugh like that with me
jackie May 2020
every time we say goodnight
we exchange 'i love you's' but
i think we both exchange them
for different reasons
jackie Apr 2020
really pretty person
open book
squirrel
intelligent (and amazing!)
effervescent
jackie May 2020
i was a mere speck of dirt in your
mind while you
were a plague in mine
jackie Apr 2020
i know you have to leave but
for a minute just
stay here
with me

i thought tape was supposed to keep things together
lately, the world has come crashing down over
our heads
why are you so angry?
what have we done wrong?
she said you changed after she died
but this big of a change
doesn't seem like it's as healthy as it seems
does the world come crashing down for you too, 𝘧𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳?
jackie Feb 2021
Kerosene instead of gasoline
I always knew we were meant to crash and burn
Endings, endings, endings,
No texts, no laughs
Exit, exit, exit,
Nothing feels good about you
jackie Aug 2020
it was at that moment
that i realized
hearing you laugh
was the only thing i truly lived for
jackie Apr 2020
mostly, i just wish
that i could be there for you
as much as you were for me
toy
jackie May 2020
toy
am i supposed to be yours?
oh sorry, darling
i wasn't made to be your toy
jackie May 2020
'i'm pretty'
the red words upon
my veined wrist
to him
jackie Mar 2020
you ever get that feeling
here you’re
unsafe?
it’s quite confusing
but yet unfusing
where you feel as if
you’re floating
but you’re about to fall
you ever get that feeling
where you’re
unsafe?
i do
don’t you?
it’s quite weird
i can’t tell
is it the fact I’m next?
i can’t put it into context
it’s not much fun
yet so silly
unsafe?
i can’t quite tell,
are you unsafe?
are you?
i whisper
i can’t
i don’t
know
you ever get that feeling
where you’re
unsafe?

champagne bubbles
smoke hangs in the air
and you say you're just fine
jackie May 2020
twisting vines
unrequited love but
silvery tears and golden stripes
jackie Apr 2020
once upon a time
i wanted you and now i realize
i didn't need you
jackie Apr 2020
i drew something on my hand for you
just so you know
but in the midst of all of the things happening
water washed stars away
and disease washed me away from you
jackie May 2020
maybe if i said that
you were all i had;
nevermind, it was a silly thought.
jackie Aug 2020
oh, please
don't try and trick me
this time, you've fallen for my puzzles
rhythms and rhymes
the next time i'll intertwine my fingers with yours
the next time i'll let you lay a hand on me
is when hell freezes over
oh, but wait;
you'll have to wait a while for that.
next time?
don't get so cocky, love.
jackie Feb 2021
i wish
to be released from the chains of my gender
being feminine is exhausting,
wipe your mouth like this,
sit like this,
wear makeup or no one will love you,
don't play a sport, stay in the kitchen
i wish
that being reprimanded for not sitting carefully enough
or walking up the stairs a bit too loudly
was acceptable
jackie May 2020
sent messages,
the subtle hints and nudges but then;
she realizes she's the prey
and they're the predator
wolf in sheep's clothing i guess
jackie Apr 2020
but you're too good for me
and i wonder
why can't i get you out of my head?
jackie Apr 2020
witty and idiotic
young at heart
amazingly adorable
troublesome and tenacious
talented with a dash of infinite cleverness
you
jackie Feb 2021
you
it's been a long time since i've heard from you
i suspect it's my fault this time
it's always my fault.

— The End —
