honestly?
I should have stopped,
let it go, done, finished
but it was
like you were written in my bones
uncertain and unknown
you flow through my bloodstream
screaming in silence, ringing in my ears
over the things in my head
inside the paranoia
all the hysteria
you still managed to
drive me crazier
insane, uncontrollably nuts
in your own kind of way
slowly, then all
at ******* once

I should have stopped you
(I know I can)
I should've tried to,
but little did I know
I was not that strong
to stop my own desire
of fulfilling your desires
(still struggling at titles pardon me)
I walk the world with thoughts of you
In every place I go
Your voice is on the winter wind
Your footprints in the snow
And every tool I try to use to scrape you from my mind
Cuts your name onto my tongue
And beats me till I'm blind
I layed my head upon your knees and breathed the air you breathed
I cut myself when you were cut to know just how you bleed
Now as I walk this empty earth with nothing but a face
To breathe me and to bleed me
Until I leave this place
Where we live and what we do,

should not affect what one pursues.

An image once believed as true,

is now governed by the ignorant few.

Their spreading lies to gain more power,

depicting dreams one will choose to devour.

Taking control while disguising it as a freedom,

rhetorical question, is it me who truly needs them?

Challenge authority when you’re told what to do,
For your heart holds whats right,
and your soul knows what’s true.

To all whose minds are severely sedated,

open your eyes to what’s being created!
my DNA is a self-made daisy chain
strung together with the best of intentions
and a few yards of dental floss

it's always getting tangled up in moon beams
and boot strings
     tugging me in one thousand directions at once
like the sea pulling at the limitless shorelines hem

i am magic

my flesh reflects the hue of the desert dust the winds bathe me in
speckled with freckles that occasionally line up with the stars

what a fool i'd be to paint myself into obscurity
with make-up brushes and lipstick hues

          no

i choose me

excessively sensitive to the energy of all other living beings
always feeling everything
all the pain and happiness
love and fear and angst
     at once
          lumped in with the leaves of my tea
destined to forever reside within
     me

the high-priestess of the immeasurable things
the guardian of treasures unseen
     constantly filling my sundress with ***** pebbles
     broken feathers
          and all the stardust i can find

i've spent the last one thousand life times
being everywhere at the EXACT same time 

you should know
     you were there

     and oh
such love i've found
hiding in the shallows
in the mud
     and under the edges of your finger nails

even in the darkness of the vast
and ever-stretching sky
there is so much light
so very many precious gems
hoisted into timeless settings along the milkyway's head-dress

          i promise
where i am right now
is the best place to be

and if you don't believe me
     crane your neck towards the stars
