flowers wilt if you don't water them

so don't just water me whenever you feel like it
i don't know what I want either

longing in my chest
aching at the thought of you, come to me. I
need to be held,
touched, felt.
understood by you.
appreciated as I am.
cherished.

the small of my back, my wrist, my neck, all of
my flesh is yours (for the taking)
my nails in your side, you nuzzle my hair as
I breathe you in
your feeling lingers on me for hours.
run and hide from me before
I give you all of myself.

what I can become is limitless,
for you give me what I need
to grow. reaching towards possibilities
borne of darkness. we lie in wait
for the time to strike
soon. before you know it
"the time is now."
I see the dwelling pain inside
That you try so hard to hide.

I see through those deceitful lies
The feeling of watching your soul slowly die.

You cant help it but watch yourself fade away,
So letting go is the only way.

The memories will last, that much i know;
But you must live on, put on a show

And someday you will be able to flee
But its a game of waiting, so lets just wait and see...
For all those who think no one cares for you. There's always someone who does

Wish the same could have been said for me :)

Lately
I’ve been thinking
About how people
Used to write
Letters.

They’d send them
Across the sea
And wait.

One month.
Three months.
Five?

But so much
Can happen in a week
Much less
A month.

We each have a clock
With an unknown.

Minutes that countdown,
minutes we’ve wasted.

An indefinite supply
Of a definite number.

Tell people
What you would write
If you knew
Something would happen
In the month you waited
For a reply.
We Aren’t Promised Tomorrow, But We Make Plans For It Anyway

.

A cluster of breaths

Cold feet,

I'm still,
Holding
And hoping to pass on.

We live and we learn
But we never conform
To the norms
That have been set forth
By others on this earth

I’d rather live in lies
Than waste my time
Waiting for someone else
To tell me how to live my life

I see something in you
Past the limits of dark and light
It’s your enigma
That fills me,
So full of energy and love

You’re a perfect spec of star dust
In the infinite galaxies
You make the universe yours
Like the nebulas that create
The most wonderful worlds

I want to travel with you
At 20 parsecs past the end of us
Never conforming
To even the laws of nature
That’s the wish that I have
for you and I

My beautiful
My Nebula
My sun and moon
And all the matter in between
My greatest achievement
Will be when you’ll finally
fall in love with me

Don't wait until
her heart gets tired
before you do
something for her.
You can reason out
with the mind
but not the heart.

Here I am standing,
Waiting for my food that has yet to come.
Dying from starvation.
Hoping for salvation.
hahahahaha just for fun when my food took too long
