#flustered
our clothes, our tattered clothes are torn up and frayed, unsightly and stained the bindings are strained, they fit no longer the hemming gave 'way, they hold no longer our feet, our blistered feet are cut up, in pain, aching, inflamed their will's been bent, they heave no longer their life's been spent, they move no longer our hearts, our hollowed hearts are battered and bruised, worn out and used all has been drained, they bleed no longer their thumping has waned, they beat no longer our hopes, our shattered hopes are blackened and greyed, broken, dismayed all has been lost, we hope no longer we're wont to last, we yearn no longer our souls, our flustered souls are darkened and swayed, lost and derailed their glow's been dulled, they shine no longer their flow's been culled, they live no longer our hands, our calloused hands, tho' wounded and gashed, hardened and bashed are all we have to show at the end of the day...

Scrapbook Poem #73
unique and divergent unearthing the curses i am to be studied omnipresent burdens burning at both ends, keep working keep hurting, keep turning the pages of the holy book hoping nobody looks when a single tear spills down my cheek florescent fish flustered by the hook

The Bell Jar
I was restless this evening past, tossed and turned until shadows cast, disheveled hair, and eyes mad, I procured a parchment and quill to acquit my mental fast . I was restless this evening past, tossed and turned until shadows cast, disheveled hair, and eyes mad, I procured a parchment and quill to acquit my mental fast . I was restless this evening past, tossed and turned until shadows cast, disheveled hair, and eyes mad, I procured a parchment and quill to acquit my mental fast

a mental fast from poetry
My beloved You make me for get my chores, the fact that I have a brain instead of a heart Belove I fantasize about kissing you, your touch, having *** with you, sleeping with you Beloved All I want is your smiling eyes, tender kisses and your gentleness ‎محبوبي ‎ أنت تجعلني أنجز أعمالي الروتينية ، حقيقة أن لدي دماغًا بدلاً من قلب ‎ محبوب ‎ أتخيل تقبيلك ، لمستك ، ممارسة الجنس معك ، النوم معك ‎ محبوب ‎ كل ما أريده هو عيناك المبتسمتان ، قبلاتك الرقيقة ووداعتك

Flustered girl
a soft look, was drawn to my direction blushed cheeks, came towards me; that filled my madness a single touch, in every part that i could handle from you letting, every part of you in me.. just to repeat the moment again. and again.

flustered
You make my heart hurt. I'm not going to be all poetic and say, "Oh how I long to be with you." I am simply going to say, "I love being around you." My stomach does triple flips when I'm around you and sometimes I wonder how I manage to not spontaneously toss my cookies when I see you. My heart thinks it is a metronome, a broken one for that matter. My heart thinks it has the stability to beat faster than 250 bpm (maybe someday it'll realize that it can't). My brain constantly forgets what day of the week it is, or what time I'm supposed to take my medicine, but miraculously it remembers your birthday, your least favorite color, and your middle name. Lastly, my soul is unsure of so many things; which way is right and how to face the things which I fear, but the one thing my soul is set on, is you.

Heart Strings
Sew your ideals behind your ear and stitch your wishes above your heart Beware you'll never get what you want The flames will blow out before the candles even lit Hold on my friend your speeding towards a deadend Light always casts shadows but shadows never see the light Choking on pride because it's to hard to swallow gets you nowhere fast Open your lungs Cool your flustered cheeks If you rant till your lips are numb the things worth hearing flutter out mute Swallow your swollen pride For it has not a use but to bruise the inflated ego Walking handstands on raw palms while longing for a spotlight that has been burned out for years

The snowman dreaming of sunny beaches
I'm warm and flustered...

awake
Jaded from your viciously captivating smiles, Ubiquitous yet blurred and vague, Stinging pain from this weird emotion, Thank you for the greeting, It made me happy just by seeing blue and white, Naivete has taken over me, flustered red.

I woke up flustered, as I remembered In my dream, We were dancing in sheets High on each other, we created steam.

Steam
I want you to touch me Press your lips against mine I'm feeling flustered, But I won't hide... If you'd just touch me, I might lose my mind.

Touch me
my eyes are red as im laying in bed im remembering what you said so many thoughts of mine are left unsaid, but i couldn't tell you why even if i tried sometimes it's just hard to decide if these words I find sound just right.

tired eyes
It takes little more than a kind word To carry me through a month To hold me up against battle To force me, against trials, to triumph. It takes little more than genuine praise To burn a soul to memory To lose all sense of proper speech To fly unbound and freely. And with a word comes a smile I can't get it off my face With a word comes gratitude So potent my hands shake. With a word comes a flattered feeling That blossoms just under my ribs With a word comes a jittery, happy panic On which I cannot put a lid. I laugh boisterously I forget my usual frown With a word I am lifted And I will never come back down.
