'ARE U gAY?!!' quiz in cosmos i hide under my bed

I'm 12 and I've been reading for 352 days straight and I have no interest in the people around me and why should I?
I'm 14 in this one and my sheets have polka dots on them and my pillow is Avril Lavigne's face and I'm thinking about the girl at school with pink hair and slow penmanship.
When I'm 16 you are 15 and holding my hand and I'm asking about french homework and trying not to focus on the movement of your thumb around mine which is not friendship.
This time I'm 21 and your thick bones outline my thin and I like this small feeling.

I spent a lot of time growing up wondering about my ****** orientation and struggling to find a box I could fit and move and wiggle in at the same time as being terrified of other people and completely fascinated at the thought of not being.

Self Portrait

a poet who can't write
a dog that won't bite
a hill that can't climb
a clock with no time

an ist with no ism
undead but not risen
an endless schism
of self sedition and indecision

a two headed coin
a completely missed point
a light in the void
a limbless joint

Bo-Peep with no sheep
the shallowest deep
an unsailed sea
of dreamless sleep

while morrissey despairs in the background

Awaiting Praise

Congratulations

You did something
that you were
told to do.

So why
are you
awaiting praise
for doing something
you should have done
in the
first place?

Some people

If someone is being kind and saying hi
You should at least have the decency to look them in the eye

Wud up is all I got... Some people man some people...

Have you?

Have you ever loved someone?
And the feeling of those butterfly-things appear out of nowhere.

Have you ever been crazy about someone?
When every topic of discussion is connected with that someone.

Have you ever been so excited when you just woke up in the morning?
Because you are about to have a quality time with your one on that day.

But...

Have you ever lost those happily-silly things?
Like you are starving of those feelings to appear again on your days.

#have #you

Masha Yurkevich Dec 2018

Where have you been?

Where have you been
when I needed you the most?

Where have you been
when I needed a hand to hold?

Where have you been
when I cried myself to sleep?

Where have you been
when I was so scared and weak?

Where have you been
when I need your help?

Where have you been
when pain was all I felt?

Don't come back now;
I do not want you.

You weren't there
when I needed help to get through.

Don't come into my life
if you weren't there in the first place.

I don't want you.
Stay away.
