The yellow sky
The blue sea
People on the beach
Wearing their hearts on their sleeves.
Orange flames
Green trees
Dancing with winds
On a moonlit street.
Mocha skin
Of the beauty she
Looks like a
Midsummer's dream.
Red horizon
Astounded she
Lays on back
Absorbing the energy.
Pink lips
Brazen feet
Talking hands
Aura of perfectivity.

Love me, and I'll love you

No, wait. I don't want to say that.

How about

I'll love you unconditionally like I said I would

And you can do whatever you want with me

I'll always believe in you.

Hopelessly.

i can feel the weight
of my flesh hanging
off of me. i am sick
of bloat. i hunger for
hunger, a disgusting
nostalgia for days of
colorless lips and
hair out in clumps
and shivering in the
summertime.

Put me together
Tear me apart
Put me together
Tear me apart
Put me together
Tear me apart

Just like you'd do a puzzle
Its okay
Seriously, its okay
I'm a puzzle okay
I'm a puzzle
Only you can solve me now
I know all my pieces
I know how I need to go
But I am only a puzzle
And I can't put myself together
So please do it for me

Put me together one last time
And then you can walk away

Please don't throw me at the wall
Like you did last time

Please don't kick the pieces under your bed
Someday its gonna get dusty under there and you'll see me again

Put me together
Tear me apart

I am only a puzzle.

Puzzles.

I made some promises
That I'd love you forever
That never leave your side
That I'd never betray you
That you'd always be my best friend

I made some statements
That you were the love of my life (actually, you made that one first, you really pulled me in with that one)

...why should I even finish this poem

To me
Your name is strung across the stars
And wrapped around the moon.
That way
I hear it
Every evening
No matter where I am or what I am doing.
That way
Whatever else may happen
If night still falls
I will always be thinking of you.
