 Dec 2013 soul in torment
Brianna
Who was I to tell you that you were wrong and I was right?
I didn't know a **** thing about loving you.
I told you to be patient with me I asked you to let me have some time...
And you told me it would be alright if I never loved you.
Who I was I to ask you to wait for me to change my mind?
To ask you to make everything seem alright?
I wore this mask with you and it just wasn't okay.
I didn't know a **** thing about loving myself.
I asked you to change your way to be a different kind of man.
And you asked me to tell you when you would be enough.
Who am I to deserve such a caring man who would change his ways with no questions asked?
I don't deserve a **** thing especially you.
I call myself a rhymeslut
Proudly.
A poetic coquette,
I deal in grimy slimy rhymes.
Here I am,
Covered
Smothered
In all these words
I love it.
Write a poem
Shove it
in my face
This rhymeslut
Will take the full load.
Inspired by 'Rhymeslut' by Harriet Tecumsah Watt.
You have taught me how to sell
So well.
I  have convinced them all
of my resolve,
Referenced and alluded to
a strength I just don't have.
I've sold the world my story
Subtly altered,
Slightly skewed.
The truth is, I still cry.
I cry, and I lie.
Only you and I know why.
My charming heaven,
a basket of mess,
A casket of happiness,
Made me overwhelmed,
A peaceful sleep
A dire rest,
A day one
Hardly could regret,
A night one
Would surely redress,
Never forgotten,
Such unrest,
Clinging smoke
Daring darkness,
lonesome stress
In my little sun-dress,
No,I'm not a baby!
A grown woman,
Not even a lady!
But somewhere in 30's
My desire
could not be suppressed
Of being alone
in my loneliness,
In screaming silence
Shouting noise,
I really need to
run away tonight,
beyond the moon
Beyond this sunset,
a safe night
Gaga might,
Dream and let me dream tonight,
come with me with all
your light,
Between the stars,
In the sparkling night,
You,me
Myself and I
Don't you have a child inside you too ?? :)

"Simply free"- Beneath,and  beyond; I write

of beating hearts... bleeding hearts.

Reasons' resounding, given words
~ in gravity, or flight
.
for you... and every songbird x

One spoon of cough syrup*

              Pour
   Lines pulled against
         the currents,
like the strings of my day
      and you have set
       underneath my
            horizon;
    flares of your colors
         settling into
           my earth.
                                                     Taste
                                          Read my eyes and
                                             longing looks.
                                      Find the nerve behind
                                           the trail of scarlet
                                          and embrace your
                                           lingering shadow
                                         the one I've learned
                                                  to love.                                            

          Swallow                                          ­                                                  
   Cling to my desire                                                           ­                              
 and entangle yourself
         once more
don't struggle instead
     press your bones
        into my grave
   and bury me in your
         flesh of broken
                dreams.
                                  ­                                                                 ­                                                             Repeat
                                         ­       Defrost your denied
                                                         approval in
                                                         my warmth
                                                     and wrap me in
                                                           attention.
                                                      ­ Turn me into
                                                  your poison apple
                                                and sink your heart
                                                  deep into my core.
