Be careful about what you speak;

Watch it note for note.

Because sometimes, dear,

Unintentionally

A sharp tongue will cut its own throat

there's just something about the way
you touch me that feels
different from what i'm used to
there's something about it that
makes me feel special
i don't feel human when
i'm with you

I pray for you
to be delivered

Blood stained the cobblestone street
As they punished me, San Valentín.
For marrying people off the streets,
To keep them from the war defeats.

Yet they celebrate my body marred
On a holiday with gifts and cards.
I wish to join them in chocolates fed,
But it's hard to eat without your head.
What Valentines is really about.

I gave you the hour
you asked for
But you won't give me the minute
i need

You told me you needed
more freedom
Yet I'm still waiting
to be freed

I don't know what else
i could give you
Your love is becoming
greed

I don't want this relationship
anymore
But I'm waiting for you
**to leave
Leia R Apr 2015
Come, sleep.
Join me in the stillness
that is life after
death

Let your flesh
rest easy in the
place it will be
buried

And let your soul
wander in the
place it will
awaken

There is no need to
worry anymore for
your mind will be
free

Just take my hand and follow
me to the place
that is
**paradise

the sounds of waves echo off of
bleached beaches
the iridescent moon is my only guide
as i try to
blink the fog away

" i have never felt like this "

maybe if i close my eyes it
will all go away
maybe if i fall asleep
everything will be okay

Honed fangs behind
sweet lips.  

Lips made to caress my
skin as they travel along
my throat.
So gentle he is,
For a monster

His tongue against my
jugular;
Heartbeats quicken.
Shallow breathing
as his dark eyes
bore into mine.

"Take me," I plea, "make me into you."

You are mine...
His voice is thick,
laced with seduction
but also some sort of
tenderness.

His movements
careful
slow
calculated.

He plants a
kiss on my neck,
fangs barely brushing.

*And I do not destroy that which is mine.

i had a dream about you last night

you were so kind
you took me to dinner and
that night you held me in your
arms and told me you loved me

In the pale moonlight
In the whispers of night
Are the dreams I hold in my hand

And I await the day
In the heavens array
That I may release them at God's command
Leia R Jun 2014
Dreams are like people,

cloaked in darkness,

and hiding behind

fragile masks.



In other words,

they are a reflection

of our secret thoughts and

inner selves.



And not just in the

dreams, but in the

nightmares

too



do we find our deepest

sadness, fear,

and even

desires lurking in the dark.



But even now,

for some unexplainable

reason,

I like the darkness.



There's something

unspoken about the

danger, the quiet,

the cold.



Something terrifyingly beautiful,

almost like

death,

but then again...



When the dreamer

dies,

*what happens to the

dream?

heart and mind
both opened at the
exact same time.

outside of my comfort zone
i quickly and quietly
write the poem.

regrets and fears
of darkness from the past
how long will AJ let me last?

a dark secret i don't want
to show
just how long until they know?

he seems supportive
accepting and such
and he says he likes me way too much

all of these people are coming around
glancing away and trying not to laugh at ya
but you push your glasses up the bridge of your nose

I just want to hold his hand and

kiss his cheek and picture him

his clothes of choice

See him every single day

and I know that I'll never

be strong enough to say



"I can picture our forever."

Leia R Jun 2014
I love how when you visit

You sit on the other couch silently

Reading your book



How every minute or so

I hear the flipping of flimsy

Pages



Sometimes, when I glance at you

I see different emotions passing

Across your face



I love to watch you change position

As you shift your body

Across the sofa



I love how you bury yourself

Into the literature so that you

Don’t even hear me talk



But that’s okay because

Watching you quietly is

All I really need.



l.r.
Leia R Jun 2014
It may seem strange,

but sometimes,

I watch you sleep.



Seeing you lie there,

dreaming.

It seems to be



the little bit

of peace I

have left.

words choked on and lost to coughs
