Leave me and my thoughts
Do not bother me anymore
Leave me alone
Goodbye

if you really cared
about me
about anyone
at all

if you really care
about my well being
about anything that isn't yours

all you have to do
is read my poetry.
me;
because i have shared it with you
but it flew right past.
you;
as if it didn't matter at all

Eventually the cracks he left deep in your heart will heal and it'll be easier to breathe on your own.

we share saliva like secrets between friends,
taste each other like the appetizers before the main course,
**** frantically like rabbits, and the lights still stay off when
we make love.
it’s not until
her name
spills
from your tongue as we make love &
i have cottonmouth.
you don’t apologize either.

i write love songs for you in the sand, but high tide
always dissolves my words by sunrise. the hazy sunlight
floats through the early morning window, and the ghosts
invite themselves into my home and inside my head. i
have to ask, is it love if I take you, or is it love if I set you
free? my words become meaningless if my mouth can’t
keep up with your insatiable animal instinct. is this
the only way i can separate you from calling me a
friend, by separating my legs?

Lost amidst the blizzard, no idea of where to go.
An endless veil of blinding white. No life, no warmth, no hope.
Then feintly in the distance, a warm and welcome glow.
A beacon that can lead my way to sanctuary, and so


I summon what's left of my strength and walk a line so straight.
I know I must stay on this path and never deviate.
For if I can just reach this light, perhaps I can create
a fire to warm my frozen soul, revive, recuperate.


I fear the glow will fade and I'll return to emptiness.
Perhaps this is my end of days. I failed my final test?
But no, it burns more brightly now and heat moves through my chest.
My frozen heart begins to beat, awoke from its arrest.


I reach out now to touch the light, to see if it is true.
Did someone see me lost inside, and try to pull me through?
My frozen fingertips delight, my eyes again shine blue.
The ever-reassuring sight of happiness. It's you!


For this and so much more I want to thank you and to say
that though the nights are so, so long. I know you'll bring the day.
I've told you many times before, there's no way to repay
this debt of gratitude I bear. But on this Christmas day


I wish you all the happiness the world could bring, and more.
For in your friendship I have so much to be thankful for.
When everything is bleak and senseless, only your discourse
can guide me through the wilderness. You are my driving force.


So take with you this sentiment wherever you may go,
and anytime you're feeling weak, I hope it helps to know
that if the blizzard closes in, I'll find you in the snow.
I'll tear right through that endless sheet. I'll be your warming glow.

When its darker,
My heart fills with dread.
I feel safe surrounded by beautiful reflections, illuminating my world.

In the flick of a switch they disolve into inky black and Like a cat poised to attack,
It waits.

Round every corner, behind every door.
The floor creaks as i creep through the night.
I know theres no danger in the lack of light,
I'm safe.

Its not physical, the threat that waits.
Its something that cant be described,
my fears personified.

Staring at me through the dark night
Right into my blinded eyes.
No longer distracted by vision, my pain surrounds me.

Awake.

The things i didnt do.

The things i havent said.

The frantic face of sadness, desperate and cold.

I can't see it, but its formless gaze haunts my dreams.

I can feel its breath on my neck.

When its darker.
