y o u r s e l f,
      First
If I stand with my feet
shoulder-width apart
light shines through the crack
between my thighs.
and
having a thigh gap
never seemed like a bad thing.
until now.

My heart is
Molten sensuality
An
Unquellable
   Emotional
Tempestuous storm.
awakening love
before it so desires
is a pleasant catastrophe.
it'll seldom be tamable.

Unpredictable …

Inconsistent…

Incoherent?

My heart feels heavy,
My chest heavy making it difficult to breathe,
Making me feel dizzy and disjointed.
I wish people could see inside of me,
Understand me,
But they don’t, they can’t.
And so I write in words,
What they cannot see.
I write to express that which I am unable to speak.
I write to express my feelings.
When I'm in this place I am now,
It's difficult to be with people,
Even those who show love,
Even those who show understanding.
I long for compassion

But I feel shameful and undeserving of care.

I'm agitated and on edge.

I'm searching for a word…
I'm thinking,
You're thinking.
Is there morbid pleasure in wallowing in dark thoughts?

Sometimes there's this feeling inside of me that I don't completely comprehend. I know that there must be hope. And yet I wonder why I feel like I want to give everything up and fade away-
leave it all behind.
No words of comfort can pacify the waves within me- no reading of anything enlightening can change the feeling- no warm hug could erase that enigmatic feeling. No- nothing seems to be working to get me back to my wandering feet. I just feel so detached from everything and everyone.

I wish I no longer existed.
Life is a conundrum.
Do I even have all of the pieces?

Jack
It is within this rock I sit
Encased in regret, solidified guilt mortality
Hurt friend’s tear drops etch’d
Dead for all sense and purpose
Shifting on ancient sand’s sorrow
Blistered by dire gale forces breathing
Stoic between cracks in the lies
Weathering at rapid paces of mistaken footsteps
A mausoleum of loneliness
Branded with hot iron’d deceptions
Deafened of heartbreak earthquake tremors
Hammer and chiseled contaminates
Crushed bits of worthless rubble
Scattered in anguish’d apologies
****** by stupidity…

                            ...dust on the wind
