It’s a strange kind of blessing, feeling everything this deeply. People say I fall too fast but maybe I just love without rationing my heart. I feel the shifts, darling. The quiet distance. The way the air changes before anyone admits it. I wanted someone who would walk me home. Hold my hand on the heavy nights. Fight for me in the soft ways that matter. Tongue tied whispers made us tone deaf. Two gentle hearts losing each other between the lines we never said out loud. Maybe that’s how it happens love breaking slowly in the spaces we didn’t know how to fill, darling.

Taking all of my hunger In the palm of my hand I carry it with me From the sea to the sand . I curl every finger To a fist in my gut Feeding it anger and Sadness and glut . The more that I fed her The more Hunger grew Seeking and wanting Far more than I knew . The bigger she got The more her bite stung Until all left of me Was teeth, blood and tongue . And all that I ate Turned right to dust I desired no food But wanted to lust . I wanted to crave I sought to suffer Because that state was easy But living was rougher

Write My Name In A Heart
Collapse on to me, receive your love, but you’re not the girl I’m thinking of. Hearts beating fast, you’re a tough act to follow, I’m sorry if this is too hard to swallow. But I can picture her, where you now lie, Even as hard as I may try, I picture her where you now stand, I’m sure you know this wasn’t planned. I’m putting your body in place of her own, Because I’m terrified of feeling alone. I miss her warmth, the sound of her moaning, It’s for her flesh my soul is groaning. And so with you, I’ll fill the gaps, I’ll play all my cards, I’ll set all my traps, I’ll get you to love me, and take over your mind, You know my type, the manipulative kind. And when she comes back, as she always does, I’ll shower her with all my love. You’ll be just a memory, a few grains of sand, Because you were just a one-night stand.

won't eat.
Sometimes I think you look at me and see an empty cup lacking in every quality you desire to see So you pour from your own trying to fill mine to the brim what you don't realize is that I'll never be full in your eyes there will always be a drop or three missing so don't waste your precious water on me I'll never be enough to satisfy you. -Esther L.

Had a thicc fog, had a dark bog and its bad, bad presence, manifest and ****** me. Here I thought it left me. I think leaves me over, over and over, again. Had its tendrils fill the holes full, fill me with hope, pull out suddenly and depress me. I thought it came for me, turns out it does leave, turns out it leaves, most likely, when I need it. So, Bright Beam, I offer you refuge, I offer you my bad blood, If you'll only do What I need done I offer you my ill love, I offer you deluge, Bright Beam, So, Please, Fill me up.

whenever i feel empty, I try to evaluate myself, much like how a student evaluates the questions before skimming for the answers. fill in the blanks, the tiny crevices made by sadness, the cracks and gaps of loneliness; help me and fill them out with human company. fill in the blanks; sheets of paper, empty, an untouched screen, the faint humming of a computer, the pens and pencils, neat and free from human activity. fill them in; draw and draw until your mind begs to stop; write and write until the words don't make sense; I've been trying to do so much just to make sure that gaping hole of pure, slow, and excruciating loneliness and depression gets temporarily covered. I've been trying to fill in the blanks in my life since day one. It seems like it'll never work.
