let me cool you down;
take a dip on a hot summer day;
dive in, use my body as you wish;
swallow me from the glass you've got pressed to your mouth;
what a dream, it is;
use me, baby,
take what you need;
invade me

tick tock
the sound from the clock drives me insane as it echoes infinitely throughout the depths of my brain
tick tock.
the sound of your watch constantly clicking reminds me of the deadline i have until it's too late
tick tock
"my watch is a little slow"
thank you for leaving me with less time than i already had
thank you.
tick tock
how long until you notice that my hands have been fidgeting and shaking this entire time
tick tock
how long until you notice that i've grasped the seat and my knuckles are turning white
tick tock
this is my end and i'm not sure if you care but at least i tried
tick tock
you've paid attention to my good efforts but have torn them down with your negative words and rude remarks
tick tock.
"you are becoming the most negative person i know"
i guess i'm taking the likeness of you, you're a disease.
tick tock.
leave me.
tick tock.
one chance.
tick tock.
how long does it take?
tick tock.

I would much rather lurk in the shadows than dance in the light. You are cheapened with each set of eyes that judge, envy, admire. Enough light will merely turn you into a pyre of broken dreams and desperate wishes. No. This is not for me.
I will be cultivated by the cold dark upon my skin, sustained by that which shrouds me all the more. And when I go into the light… there will be none left. You won’t see me, but you will feel when I close in around you. Just too mesmerized by the dancer in the light to save your soul.

What are you?
A snake with a
seemingly flawless jaw,
slithering through me,
I can't escape from you
and from this craving
that arises so desperately,
you bit me once and ever since
you've been an itch that
I've been resisting
(don't scratch , don't scratch)
I'll scratch until I run out
of tears and anesthetic,
until my heart has made peace
with you leaving so effortlessly,
just slithering out as easy
as you slithered in.
I'm so desperate to get out of you
but so desperate to breathe you in
and never breathe you out;
I'm the hole dug outside,
lips are the shovel
and love's the dirt we use
to fill the hole back up,
and what are you?


A snake.

no thumbs up????
***!

(logs off )

give me sleep
the waves have lapped over me
for years now
and the crashing has left me shivering

give me sleep
until the moon pardons these waters
for just a day
while we wait
just let me be null

give me sleep
so that when i wake again
my throat is clear and air flows freely
and my chest sways with the tide
instead of against it

until then

give me rest
give me rest so i may wake refreshed
to face the rising moon
without this salt water chest
