Poems
Aug 2015
Don't you know that this hand washes that one too?
We sit in silence.
Blue and gray shadows dance upon our walls.
******* TV.
We sit with our feet touching.
But we are miles apart.
How did we get here?
I always ask the same question.
How did we ******* get here?
We have had love.
We have had such good times.
Unimaginably good times.
Waves of laughter.
Kisses with no end.
Holding hands in parking lots.
Now I feel that you don't even want to touch me.
I feel that you have no reason to love me.
I don't understand.
I want your love.
I want your touch.
I want your skin upon mine.
I want to make up.
I want to make love.
These things, I fear, will never happen.
We fight.
We ****.
How much longer can one heart sustain this?
How much desolation can ones bones bear?
I hear the rain upon the rooftop.
I hear the trees cracking outside.
I hear my insanity screaming inside my head.
It's a deafening silence.
My skin is on fire.
Too tight.
My blood is hot and thick inside my veins.
It needs escape.
I need to see red.
I need a razor.
I'm drowning in a sea of my own blood.
Choking on my teeth.
