You were red,
I was blue.
You turn lilac whenever I'm near,
Then red violet when you talk to me.
I turn teal when you smile,
Then uncertain as indigo when you call my name.
Then yellow came around,
You turned orange.
I turned green.
Whenever you're with me I turn you brown.
Now I disgust you.
Now I ***** you.
I strip myself of the hues I've made.
Now I'm just black.
Devoid of anything, of anyone.
Of us, of you.
Combinations aren't even right

the sound of people speaking
is amplified by thousands
as the oxygen i'm taking in
is pouring into unnecessary spots of my body
like my entire brain
is gone
i feel as thin as air.

was i even there
to begin with?

here lies
the glorious poet
whisperer of words,
the girl who never spoke
the girl who always smiled.

she wasn't happy
but it didn't show
when she got up
she painted a clown like smile
over her frown for a while.

now she can't bow down
to herself in the mirror
for she is as alone in death
as she was in life
in love
the feeling she never thought she'd felt
when she did
she didn't want to believe in herself.

here lies the body
of the daughter unborn
rested in her mother's chest
a cheatful protest
"put me back in"
she exclaimed,
trying her hardest to proclaim
her undying love for dying.

melancholic
was she
her day-to-day
feeling grey
the colour of her eyes
matched her feeling well.

she wasn't feeling well
never felt too swell
but that's alright
she no longer fights
her own hell.

and to those who join us now
watching her body loud and proud
let it be known
she is now at home
in a coffin
on the dirt of the ground
she loved far too much.

here she lies.
where she cried.
the girl with poems
written in the blue of her eyes.

Passionate kiss
Hips pulled closer
Thighs spread
Lips everywhere

Lustful
Wanting

Back arched
Hands grabbing
Eyelids fluttering
***** whispers

Senses heightened
Desire deepened

Body quivering
Breath unsteady
Satisfied sighs
Content moans

Sweaty
Spent

there is nothing here.

My past time
is drawing punnett squares;
measuring my chances at certain genes
measuring the maybe chances at babies.
constantly calculating 'could-have-beens'.

Though, not always certain,
I discover myself in the punnett squares
written in graphite
sprawled across my table.

99.9% chance of being normal,
and I got stuck at that .1.
I can go on,
drawing punnett squares on my arms
and legs
and stomach
and back.

Calculate
my chance
at being
DECENTLY FINE.

Now's not the time
to be drawing punnett squares
all over the place...

But what are my chaces
at a prettier face?

What were my chances at brown eyes
and carmel skin?

What were my chances,
where do I begin?

Punnett squares
excite me
because I see my
could-have-beens.

What are my chances
of finding
someone like me
identical in thought,
obsessed with
the past
and how we could-have-been

BETTER?

But we're not.

We're just a
punnett square.
