i am not
letting you go,
but i will not
hold on to you, either
the art of staying in the middle

We never thought we make it this far,
but then you had to go and ***** it all.

You cheated on me with two girls,
thus risking if I'd still be a part of your world.

Now I am left with a tug of war between my heart and my head.
I would not be in this position if you had not taken them to bed.

Opposites attract but never last

But you’re not someone I can leave in my past

Sorry I can't
hear you any
—more.
I think we're

breaking up.


I think we're

breaking down
each other.
draft from fall 2013
There's not a thing in the world
That can break us through
Because you have me
And I have you
Whatever happens, just remember
We'll always be together
No matter how rough
Or how tough
I will always be here
So don't fear, my love
I love you.
I'm here for you, because I love you.

Remind me why we sin
with the pressure of your lips
tongue tie me
to your sheets
and whisper long syllables
of slow honey
and sting me with your gaze
meeting mine where
fear and pleasure mix
and strip me of my human name
and sacrifice it to the love
of pleasure you keep within your ribs
and show me the stars
you keep below your skin
and tell me of the scars
you wear proudly on your heart
tell me no lies
and I’ll give you my truth
and with a silent word
and a burning kiss
let me remind you
why we sin

I don’t think we were ever supposed to be a thing.
That we were never meant to be more than just strangers…
but something happened.
I don’t know what though.
Perhaps this is just an illusion,
one that I can’t seem to pull myself out of.
That those nights filled with laughter and deep conversations
until the clock reads two… is solely just a picture scribbled
inside my head.
But even then, somehow you still seem to know
me better than I know myself.

How did we find ourselves here?
How did I become so lucky to break down
those walls you’ve worked so hard to build?
How did I find a guy who looks past all of the things
I try to hide from myself?
More than friends yet not technically lovers,
our story is a forgotten fairy tale—
with meaning that has been lost in translation.
Perhaps maybe one day, we can break out
our old notebooks and ink pens
and begin to write our own.
