Bad love will hurt you
it will crush you into tiny pieces
make you into someone
you don't even recognize
it'll bring you to your wits end
you will bleed out all your love
trying to give them everything, anything
just so you feel loved back

but healthy love will heal you
make you feel complete
and capable

you say you’re not a poet but
with a girl like that,
how could you speak
anything less than
the stars?

don't inflict me with your
introspection,

dangerous, idle, self-reflection,

tap out of my headspace

my cerebral territory is not a good place

I don't need to think about my thinking

metacognition is a fruitless mission

I'm telling you now

get out
get out
get out

I know a girl. Who’s not really in love, she just wants to be loved, she craves the attention love brings. But she’s not in love. I know a girl who’s been hurt so many times she’s numb to it. She puts on a front she thinks no one notices but I do because I know the real her. I'm her.

I like  watching you
from the distance
because
I bruise easily

But sometimes
I am tired of being
sad little girl
in the corner

Note of a piano
Noises from an instrument
Noises that I know
Unfamiliar to my brain.

A line of music
Noises from a song
Noises that I picked
Never remember anything long.

A piece of poetry
Words from literature.
Words that I wrote
And I'm not even sure.

when i sleep

i dream about you, sometimes.

after days when im full of caffeine and "what ifs", nights

when i cant fall asleep until the blue flows back into my bedroom walls

when i cant seem to shut off the dreams and nightmares

when i cant make my memories fade along with the light


a faceless being

someone ive never known, yet i know you better than anyone else

you're the warmth pressed to my back

you're the comfort in this worlds apocalypse

you're the thing i never knew i longed to have, until i didn't have you.

sometimes,
i like to dance
with the devil
burning eyes upon me
in hypnotic dazzle
my toes easily
sweep away inhibitions
quieting my angelic
voice's suspicions
as whispered words
brush thine ear
my entranced ego
has no fear
endangering
as it may be
our bodies entanglement
appears free
with soaring thoughts
of ecstasy
we ebb and flow
in ****** mystery
seduced in music
playing rhythmically
ecstatically,
i dance willingly
