We are all silhouettes
Wrapped in the tapestry
Of a blooming night
Outlines etched messily
Into a cotton wool sky
Beautifully imperfect
A stray wisp illuminates
Sings sweet like our
Honey bee laughs
We smile, always
Endlessly sunshine yellow
For here we are youth
Wild like dandelions
Rebelling against being
A common flower
We paint the word ****
In shining glitter
Send it to outer space in
A paper airplane
Then dance on crazily
Like the night is infinite
Dreaming for a forever
Something a bit different

Sometimes it takes courage to forgive the people that have hurt you. It also takes time to heal and steady your heart. Life moves on and so will you once you have given your self the time to linger on the emotions that hurt. Learn, grow, adjust to the new change because it’s not everyday that you have your heart broken.

my body starts to get heavy
suddenly i’m all blue
let me just lay down for a minute
let me just be quiet for a minute
dinner is ready
i’m not hungry
i’m sleepy
but i can’t sleep
why my chest is hurting like that?
why is so hard to breathe?
it’s kinda nice everything seems to be in slow motion
actually it’s just me
please be patient with me
don’t be bothered by my shaky hands
or my unquiet leg
i’m sweating
why do i feel anger?
i thought i was sad
i’m desperate
i’m terrified
why do i feel like this?
why is so hard to breathe?
breathe in
breathe out
just like they taught you
5 things you can see
4 things you can hear
3 things you can touch
2 things you can smell
1 thing you can taste
i’m sorry
i know i was ok
but now i’m sad
at least i’m breathing
take my hand
be patient with me.

there are women who love demons
you can see it in their eyes
like a sick hunger
silence in a straight jacket
smiling limbs on a pyre
staring entranced
whiskey blind
as if marveling
at a howling blood-spattered dingo in a crater
seduced to wander off half-naked into a bush of thorns
******* barbed hooks for heroine kisses
women on fire who believe in nothing
except their atavistic compulsions


they are a burning land
beauty in ruin
ready for the slender whip
and black-toothed kisses
who giggle and then plunge into an abyss

i hold her like a jaw holds teeth

I need something to fill this
void,
So I will beg for your
figure
And I will take to try and fill this empty
insatiable
inquietude
But still I am still greeted with empty hands
and
dejection
because when i trace your skin
i can hear music
and when i look into your eyes
i see an ocean
now please tell me how
do i just let that go?
ill never understand why you got so cold.
in my arms
lies someone new
but in my heart
i wish it was you.
i miss you.
