I lost my confession
But why u repent?
I shot at the sky
Did sin see me salvaged?
I cradled insanity falling upward
Got the tune with me?
I mocked the thorn, faded
Yearning, bluing, prattling
I hummed the silent lyrics, nested
Could dandelions dare astray?
08:46 May 10, 2024. By the wet windowsill on the fourth floor.

It was never me
To wait like a bee
Buzzing as i flee
Shan't I be free?

Cannot move
Where's the groove?
For years I could've
Again I should've
Yearning for the love

Late at night when everything is quiet I think of you
The loneliness is a familiar feeling because I felt it while being next to you
I always wanted a love that made me feel loved but instead just turmoil
Water and oil mixture
My soul cries out and the bugs get louder
Is there something wrong with me?
I miss your body next to mine, without it
I’m yearning, searching..
it’s 2 AM and I miss you
The body heat most importantly
I wish you would’ve thought of me the way I thought of you so it wouldn’t leave me stuck
At 2 AM…
Missing
Reminiscing
you.

I promise to only run my hands
along the length of your body, just for a moment.
I will gather all the memorable parts of you
the first time,
so I don’t waste the grace you’ve given me.

I will let my hands explore
the best of you—
so that when I’m asked
how I imagine the universe was created,
I can mold a lump of clay
into the mountains and valleys
your hips draw from.

I’ll sketch the bareness of your flesh
as it was in the light—
soft, springy,
yielding beneath my touch.

And now,
I will speak acceptance
into the space between us,
for the thought of never touching you again
is a promise I must keep.

how could you look at me,
with your bright green eyes,
yet so dark,
and so addicting,
and act like that look,
wasn't the very same look,
that you'd given to me,
when we were in love?
i think i still love you.

I miss your warmth,
but not only the physical warmth,
that boil under your skin,
like it was made to warm me in cool nights,
but the warm thing your smile,
in the words you spoke to me, too,
but I'm not supposed to miss your warmth,
since you are the one to catch me fire

You tell me you'll love me forever,
More than anything,
forever.
maybe "forever" meant something else to you,
like "until next month".
unfortunately when I promised forever,
I meant the "forever" kind of forever.

I want to kiss you. Just this once.
I promise to not linger or ask you to reconsider indulging me once more.  
I just must know if the intensity in my belly is all in my head or if the act of kissing you is as life altering as I believe.
I want to kiss you even if it means this the last time we ever meet.

is it so much to ask
to love me like you're breathing
unlike a chore
love me like you're alive
I know they'll find me one day
