I Am A Flower Girl
I Picked A Bouquet Of Azaleas
Just For You
I Smiled At You And You Returned My Smile
With Your Warm Crooked Grin
I'm A Flower Girl
I Picked A Bouquet Of Lilacs This Morning
But They Withered On My Way To Your House
I Cried So Hard My Eyes Turned Red
All You Said Was Comforting
"It's Okay"
I'm A Flower Girl
I Went To The Ocean
And Picked You A Huge Bouquet
Of Dew-Kissed Hibiscus Blooms
Yellow For Sunshine
And Orange For The Setting Sun
I Am A Flower Girl
I Went To The Meadows
And Picked You Some Buttercups
And Some Morning Glories
We Held Hands Watching The Sunsets
And I Finally Presented You With The Bouquet
You Smiled And Placed One In My Brown Hair
I Giggled And Did The Same
I Went To The Enchanted Forest
And Picked You The Bluest Bluebells
Some Orchids And Lady Slippers Caught My Eye
And I Picked Them Too
Along With Some Spring Beauties And Violets
I Made A Huge Bouquet For You
Collecting All The Flowers I Could Find
And When I Was Through
I Handed Them To You And Said
With A Big Warm Smile
"I Picked Them All For You
I Hope I Brought Some Sunshine Your Way
And Put A Smile Upon Your Beautiful Face"

Some people
promise unity, but the
                                next day they are just different                people  *
              wanting different things, thrown back     *into

             the world like the unwanted      fish,
                                   hook still buried                           *deep
Fish shape

something unexpected yet so ordinary happened
last night
it made me wonder how exactly and
why exactly
the ordinary parts of my life are often so
extraordinary
that extraordinary, to me, has to be more than
exceptionally marvellous and nowhere near far from
outstandingly incredible
some people call it high standards,
like the top step of the ladder

I thought
last night was incredible
because you kiss exactly like how I kiss and the shock fluttered
like bits of confetti and glitter on my tongue and lips and
all over my goosebumpy skin
the cadency of my heart was somehow simultaneously
rampant and rested
my body fully invested
in yours
my body completely suggesting
it’s yours
to touch, to make feel good, to adore
the divine woman, curved and open
eyes and skin glowing
arousal growing
bodies non-existent, spirit flowing

exceptionally marvellous
I jitter in silence, knowing myself
and patterns alike
I try to throw away this burdening muddy stick of
I-always-end-up-getting-sick
of things eventually
but obviously
it’s easier to neglect the fact
that this stick is a boomerang
and it always comes right back
a touch of some humility may put you in your place
reveal the inconsistencies you thought you could erase
the kind of metamorphosis that colors on your skin
and turns it into something rather gossamer to spin

there  cannot be another you and nothing can compare
you're free to weave a web of what you want, as you so dare
the only thing that will affect the qualities you keep
is what you store inside your head from everything you see

the doors you close and open up are actually your eyes
the things you see make up the tree that either lives or dies
but this is taking far too long, perhaps I've said too much
yet isn't that the very thing that begs the human *touch
What does it mean to be human?
You're in every crack on the tar,
Hiding beneath layers for days and weeks.
You're there when I close my eyes,
Arms painted purple by your fingertips.
You're in the front of my mind holding my hand,
blowing out smoke
Or blowing a kiss.
You're holding me against the bed,
Running barefoot across your lawn.
You couldn't control your fists
And I couldn't control my heart
So I guess we both killed each other in silent ways.

"Mental Illness"
Do those words excite you?
Look at me
I am a whirlpool of melancholy
I am a drain
I am filled with mania
I am a pulse
An endless flame
Of what perfect madness
I am every kind of fluctuation imaginable
"Mental Illness"
But I am so intimately rearranged
Put together in the most unique
And beautiful
And miserable of ways

"Mental Illness"
Ha,
*I am so much more than that.
