Instant Coffee

I knew you
in an instant
when I saw you
pass by
like I've known you
my entire life.

We lived out
each other's lives
in one another's eyes
making love with
awkward glances
and shying smiles.

We shared the simple
yet meaningful conversations
that one has at  2 o'clock AM
all without saying a word.

It was very easy to love you
and spend my life with you,
even if it was only for an instant.

You poured the coffee
and I left the tip.
My dear, if you are reading this, don't fret, for this is fiction.

I often find
myself just waiting
for your words.

Please Dear, come closer
Remind me that I'm a man
It has been too long

I must have read her poem
five-thousand times
and oh God
how I wish
those words
were reality

Beautiful pain

I want to just feel how you hold my hand
How you would try to save me
When I get caught by the monster under
My miserable bed
I want to know if you have scars
On your arms or on your heart
If it's broken or bent or
Something inbetween, like mine

Tears land on your chest
When you tell me how pretty I am
But who loves a girl that is in
Such a big struggle with herself
That she doesn't have the courage
To give her heart for the fullest

But it's teared apart already
So if you hurt me I won't react
Like your typical girl next door
Because my pain solves itself
By hiding in the dark
It'll be all alright. Follow me for more poems. Love

i forgot to tell you earlier that
i've dreamt about you every night
this week, and this morning when i
woke up i thought it was winter,
but i was warm anyway.
does this even make sense?
idk, but i think i'm in love with this dude.

today a friend of mine told me that in china
they only say i love you when they really mean it;
she talked about it like it was a loaded gun,
like telling somebody i love you also meant
i'd **** for you, i'd die for you, i'd live for you.

i don't know how to be brave enough to say that
straight, but if i could, i would fly you across the globe
to help you understand.
does this make sense? idk, i'm sorry.
i can't think of any other way to word it

i wish my generation would stop
romanticizing misery; if he only loves you
because you are sad, then what will happen
when he's the only one to make you happy

(are you prepared to watch him walk away
for another girl reading bukowski?)
please don't think your sadness is the only thing about you that is beautiful

i want saturday mornings to always smell like
black coffee and your cologne

i want to wake up before the sun rises
and walk around in wool socks, sing elvis presley
under my breath because i'll never admit it
but when i fell for you it was relentlessly and without
inhibition and
                          i just
                                     could not
                                                   help myself

i want to carry two mugs back to bed instead of just
one and i want to be there when you wake up
slowly
i've got it so bad but he's really precious when he sleeps and it's all his fault
