I will destroy you
In the most beautiful
Way possible
And when I leave
You will finally understand
Why storms
Are named after people
Your love
has left me malnourished
and begging for scraps

Don't promise me stars.
They are not within your
Reach.

I would be happy with the
Constellations freckled
And trailing down your
back.

Good days come for a while
And I think that is because once you have a good day
You know how to keep having them

But every once in a while a bad day will come
And it will feel like the end of the world
You ask yourself,
"How did I end up here?"
"Why am I thinking this way?"
"When will I ever not feel this way?"

And eventually the bad days will be engrained in you
And you will have to learn how to pull yourself out of the hole you're in
And hope that a good day is there waiting for you.
My melancholy temperament left the stench of death
upon my lovers hands and all the places that we went
Why does god hide in allegory when his creations need him most
and yet comes hands out with stories when collections need a host
Good books are my friends
Good friends are my books
I find myself
Visualizing your glasses
When he removes his.

I imagine his crooked tooth
When I see yours
Impeccably aligned.

I learned a new word today,
Cafuné,
Translates
To the act of tenderly running one's finger through someone's hair.

I grew fond of the act
Long before
Getting hold of the word.

I know not whose I prefer
Now his I adore
But as much as I do yours.

This is a *******
Torn by emotions
We have history, we share chemistry
I love you
Though I love him too
Cannot think of him
Without thinking of you

This is a *******
I have come to loathe
But the truth is
I belong to both.
