you lift me by the hips
onto your kitchen sink
and stand between
my knees,

you lay
your laughing lips into
my left collarbone
and i wrap my
arms around your neck

your hair is soft,
and auburn

i bury my nose
into your scalp

suddenly
i am inhaling a
very familiar scent,
strawberries & cream,
a bottle for 3.99
i bought
on sale last week...

i pull away
in completely fabricated,
purposefully unrealistic awe,
"buy your own
******* shampoo"

your only response is to
throw your long arms
over my shoulders and
pull me into your chest
until i could hardly
catch a breath

an annoying beeping sound
brings us both back to
earth with a startling realization,
it's a monday
& the coffees done

i know life will not
always be easy,
i know love
will never be a solution,
& money will never flow
like kisses to my palms
but it's 7 AM
and
my ribs are already sore
from all the laughter,

they will ache all day
and each movement
that conjures discomfort
will remind me
of all the beauty in pain

so if this is playing house,
let me play
at least until
i've outgrown the game

Visually Effective

My tongue is
       dripping
             with honey
     and gold,
        my voice is
   even sweeter
        and richer.

*Just imagine my lips.

Girls

Girls

Our butterflies, and sweet, rosebuds,
Languishing lazily within a dream,
Once together, but now lost forever,
In fading memory’s drifting stream.

We shared every pleasure, she and I,
Two girls embracing, love so sweet,
Tasting our butterflies and rosebuds,
Consuming our passion’s, *****-heat.

We explored all nature had to offer,
Sun-drenched glades, darkened woods,
Fantasising, and illicitly tantalising,
Our butterflies, and sweet, rosebuds.

Dedicated to Jeanne Midtowns and inspired by her poem ‘Coming Om’ to understand the full flavour of this poem, a visit to Jeanne’s poem is required.

people are not
to be saved and
they say girls are
best wild and free
or wild and reckless
but I was always the
cabin with an open
door, an inviting
bed, a warm
hearth, I
stayed
put and
did my life
by the books
still wanted to
s a v e y o u f r o m
something, yourself?
other people? the world?
I see pictures of you and
feel a sense of failure,
or loss or grief or
frustration but
you were
never mine to
save, never a thing
to be saved, never wanted
to be saved, never asked to be
saved and letting you go was akin
to releasing the leash on wild, wild beast.

You called it

You called it

How many times does is take
How many bruises must I make
How many smiles must I fake

You tell me, how bad does it hurt
Did you fall hard
Did you break your heart
You broke mine

Thats not fair to say
You didn't mean to
You didn't know
How bad it would hurt when I fell
Into the pit of feelings

This must not make any sense to you
but thats not the point
Dig deeper
Breathe harder

Its too much these days
With the air suffocating me
The weight pressing down
I can hear my ribs crack

But i feel nothing remember
Not a thing
Im not real
Im nothing
But nothing isn't such a bad thing to be

Im evil.
I worm my way into the heart
Trying to feel something
Something at all
But i feel nothing remember
Not a thing

I scratch at the membrane thats holding your sanity together
Tearing away a little at a time
Making my way
Into your mind
Into your soul
But i feel nothing remember
Not a thing

So pay me no mind
Drop me like im nothing
Weightless
Really its okay
I understand
I would do the same
Infact i already have

I feel nothing remember
Not a thing
Besides that awful snapping
Of my heart.
Of my soul.

I've already dropped myself
Just like you knew i would
You called it.

Truth

Truth

I asked you a question
I already knew the anwer
I know it will hurt no matter what
words from your mouth will be uttered.

Sometimes, the truth hurts. But knowing a person lied to you hurts even more.

Some people want to believe a simple lie than the complicated truth.

I am not one of them.

Invisible

I sit here becoming a ghost again.
Invisible,
Fading away,
Until I stop existing completely.

I have sacrificed everything for you;
Identity,
My joy, my life.
I think to myself, what was it all for?

Lone

So many questions
left unanswered
So many words
left unsaid
Flooding through the troubled minds
of the isolated
and forgotten
night after night
sitting alone
with hearts ablaze
staring at the moon
