What hunger drives us out and back
and walking, walking, free of men,
unquenched enough to taste the lack
that set us going out and back again?

From Riverside you turn on Spring
to stalk a night that will not end,
leaf-hurt, gray grieving thing
in darkness spent -- out and back again.

Alone, a million miles from dawn,
small wonder guiltless ghosts pretend
that hunger guides all exiles gone
out and back -- out and back, my friend.

I die everyday
A small part of me dies
It may be anything small
Small useless insignificant things
That keep me together
Every part of me slowly decaying
Crumbling into pieces
Falling apart

Remember the time, when we sat on a bench
and you spoke with such eloquence;
I got scared

Remember that time, when we danced in your basement
and you kept stepping on my feet;
there was no music

Remember the time, when I laid my head on your lap
and you were so tired that day;
you made me cry

Remember the time, when you kept punching the door of your room
I was just outside shouting;
we made love that day

Remember the time, when I threw things at you
I slapped and clawed you;
you said "I love you"

Remember the day, when you said you were tired
I begged you to take me back;
you didn't

Remember all those times, because I never will
I may not deserve you, you may not deserve me
but those memories are worth remembering

stress is without the reassurance of humility
I'm falling
For my long lost love
Again ....

After 6 years of loving
Liking
Hoping
I, then , decided to give up

But then,
Now,
That feeling ,
I started to feel it again.

No,
I can't ,
I can't fall for you again,
I just,
Cannot.

I don't know ,
What should I do,
It's not a sin tho,
To fall for you again,
Just that,
I had enough of waiting ,
Hoping.

Furthermore,
This heart of mine,
Is in need of someone,
To mend it,
Not to break it.

I don't know

starless
clumsily, I fall -
whether it be in or
out of love with you.
similar to how
I bring accidental pain
upon myself, simply
from knocking
my knee on something
solid. clumsily,
I trip over my own
footsteps. I know not
my destination, or
what I'll do upon arrival.

clumsily, I allow
myself to create pathetic
fancies. stupidly,
I give you the power
to inflict
bitter pain upon me.
me, the clumsiest girl
you'll ever know,
who'd be
glad for whichever marks
etched upon her skin,
by you.
