Glass

Translucent yet transparent 
Simplicity in its eminence 
Fragile yet fervid to uphold
Reflections sometimes blur to unfold
In any shape or size, manifold
Don't get blinded by the blinding lights
Beauty in its elegance, be mesmerized
Refracting spectrum of rainbows
Emmiting colors of alluring ardor
Rays of sun burning stains of tallowed sorrows
With H2O and soap, impurities gone

Akin to your heart 
That could break anytime
Fragile in its name, 
Maimed, stained with pain
Pumping but barely breathing
**Only you can choose 
To fill it full or to drink it all
To die or live again.
Just like the glass the heart could break anytime. You can filled it with all kinds of emotions. When it's too much you can either drink it all or don't. There's always a choice. Inspired by a Japanese film I watched. I can't remember the name.hha

Please will
you pull
all my poems
apart
whichever way
you think
is best
I don't care
if you pull
at them gently
or hard
I just
want to be
undressed

Sometimes I drive fast
to feel what it's like
to be alive again

"I used to be the person
who took pictures of
beautiful sunsets but
now all I see are dark clouds"

do not date a girl
who writes.
she will internalize
everything,
carve poems
into your eyelashes
instead of
kissing them,

she will analyze you,
calculate age
from the rings
your coffee cup
leaves
instead of refilling it.

she will memorize
the way your
lips curl around steam,
but not that you
take it
two sugars,
no cream.

she will read your
palm instead of
holding it
against her chest.

she will not
blink
when you leave,
because she is
already
romanticizing it.

Your heart will be cold forever
no words no gifts no experiences could change that
cold blood just runs through your veins
I hate the way I cause you pain.
Making teardrops fall like rain.

I hate the way you make me think.
clouding my mind like I'm half asleep.

I hate the way I feel so weak.
I always feel like such a freak

but though we both make clouds and sleet.
we must try to stand on our feet

hope

is what we have.
this bleary endeavor will not last forever.
I promise <3
