I'm so lonely i could *****
There's no one to talk to
Not for lack of trying
No one understands me
I wish I could sleep forever
I'd rather risk the nightmares that come
than the disappointment of having no one.
To live is to be marked
To own the words of a story

No matter how wide I stretch my fingers,
I can't catch all the pain I want to heal.
There's so many people I want to protect,
But I only have one heart and two hands
And I've never been good at juggling.

So, maybe, you can help me hold this net.
We can catch as much hurt as we can.
You're not good at juggling either,
And your eyes are just as wide as mine.
Why not be a two person act?

We'll protect these two beautiful girls,
And we can protect each other too.
We seem strong to them but we know better.
Catching and protecting them from the world,
We're bound to end up with a few bruises.
Before I met you, I only knew you as the alliteration "Beautiful Bassoonist."
Why does it crack you up?
Is the idea of
Someone
Loving
Me
So preposterous
That you can’t keep that laughter of yours
From spilling out of your mouth like poisoned arrows?

Little shuddering breaths, tiny
drops of water, infinitesimal
trembles of my shoulders. Whatever
happens, please don’t say you
feel worthless, not
you- too.

Maybe the fact that
pain is what makes me write and
I have written seven poems since
I managed to **** things up with you should
tell me something other than
I'm so sorry.

In a world
Where everyone wants
To live forever.
I kinda want to die young.
The eye of the storm is gone now
Hopefully this time
I don't loose myself in the rubble
