I think about other men
while laying cold next to you
not because I don't love you
but because you don't touch me
Perri Nov 2018
I wish I could describe
with words of the unknown
the quivering of my organs
and the shaking of my bones
from heat of your mouth,
the potentness of your tone
because with every ' I love you'
I feel more at home

It's okay
It's okay
Someone will love you deeply
One day
But until then
Lonely with him
You will stay
Until you gain the strength
To turn the other way
Because you know the love you need
To keep your soul at bay
And anything less
Isn't a price you should pay

I have this RAGE burning in me
that I can no longer hide
You make me feel so worthless
that daily I pray
that I die
because I can't stand your face
your stupid ******* hair
and smile so wide
but you wont let me leave
for a year now, I've tried
so please, sweet souls
that reside in the sky
take me up there with you
for every night that I cry
I am drained of hope
as I let out an exhausted sigh
I'll be waiting for my turn
As I am ready to say goodbye
Perri Sep 2018
Other men look
with interest and intrigue
while I walk behind you,
small,
as you take lead

I look them in the eyes
hoping they sense the hurt in me,
seeing my distress,
praying they will come set me free

So as I walk in your shadow
shameful
and unimportantly
I'm hopeful
my worth
will shine
for all the others to see

loving you feels like
I am always at a party;
contrasting and exciting
but it is obvious - my lack of appeal;
anxious and lonely

I moved to the mountains
to experience elevation
But the mountains
are pushing me
closer to extinction
