Kyra - Hello Poetry

She was like chaos

a beautiful chaos

that danced in raging fire

that sang in lightning’s wrath

that embraced the looming night.

Intimacy

When did "I love you" become a threat

And "You're a *****" a love song?

burn

i hate what it’s done to my family

i hate the heat it brings to my stomach

but it makes pretending like i can’t feel

so much easier

stolen

we are all children of the ocean

she was born from the morning mist

he was from the clear caribbean

i was born from the storming sea

Phantom Limbs

This pen is the x-acto knife

I use to cut out

every scar on my body

every blemish on my soul

every burn on my mind

Perhaps I won’t feel it after I’ve cut it out.

To be at Peace

I want to be washed away

I want waves to break into me relentlessly

until nothing remains.

I want to be washed away

I need my existence to vanish

to be crushed into dust.

The books

The books have lied.

They have stolen my heart

But left my body.

The books have lied.

They ripped my soul out

And left me to rot.

The books have lied.
