Deep in the folds My vulnerable places Like a draft displaces Turbid Stagnance Firey sun illuminates The dewey fertile soil Infiltrating unturned Spongy depths Stimulates the follicles Teases tenacious life Into frothing vigorous Surging prominence Hungry searching tongues Tasting the flushed flesh So forceful and so hot in open air Primitively freely illuminate My hunger Devour me Like a flame Consuming My pride and shame To surrender Is to love you And the falling Hurts the best

In Toxication
I saw the red flags. I ignored. You were what this heart is yearning for I tried to stop, override it but it said error. Now I'm filled with ache and terror Coz I know you're not meant to stay I'm only your temporary fix Someone you can call when you've got nobody. My heart beats twice its regular speed I couldn't calm it down nor ease the ache I can't stop the tears, the fears I'm addicted in this sad unrequited vice. A temporary fix, a temporary fix That's what I am It hurts but it's the only way I could reach you, touch you. I should walk away but my heart wants to stay In this setup where the high is all about pain Where rains on my pillow's won't stop For loving a stranger who doesn't know how to value me.

Temporary Fix
Our lips met in a cosmic collision, like the sun and the moon in an eclipse; we sensually nibbled, and ****** and licked, and tongued, and got a taste of each other's sadness. I could almost swear kissing you felt like drowning and yet, never wanting to come up for air. Our hands were frantic, like ballerinas made to dance under the tune of insane rock music; we fumbled on each other's zips and buttons, 'til they were ripped along with our clothes and the masks we wore. Our skins grazed in sweat and despair, like the earth good-morning-kissed by the sun after an entire night of raining; we caressed and clawed on backs; I was pretty sure I had glimpse of your soul, and you probably saw a void where mine should be, but we let our demons dance 'til two, like figure skaters gliding gracefully over thin ice during a winter night. And I thought it was love. God, I almost called it love, I even wished it was. But darling, it was the bottles on the floor. Probably *****

*****
"So tell me how you're so confident." You say with a glimmer of seduction in your half shut eyes, your head leaned back- I want you. I want to watch you melt in my hands. I'm slipping on snow on the patio but your glance keeps me steady, I want your hands on me already. You're 10 years older but I've caught your eye, I make you want to say "she'll have another" on your dime. We're standing outside, you'll never see me again therefore I'll sink my teeth in. You move a little closer, I'll hate when this is over. I bite your lip- you breathe deeply and put your hand on my hip. I feel the soft ****** of your 5 o'clock shadow, you're hardly callow. I force myself to pull away- this is casual I say- I turn on my toes, my hair sways, and I toss one last hedonistic gaze to the man responsible for my daze.

Blind But still so receptive To her negativity Shut her out I try But she understands Or so she says Siren Bloodletting for her love Even if it isn't real Help

Bloodletting
He is the sun on a rainy afternoon. He is the voice that fills the silence in your car. He is the strong and the humble and the proud. He is the laugh in the back of your throat. He is the hand that gives you support. He is the song that you keep coming back to, years after your first listen. He is the insomnia that keeps you awake at three in the morning. He is the clouded memory in the back of your brain. He is the kind of love that you don't even know exists until you've had it.

This poison has taken over my body I stumble and I fall I laugh and then I cry I wish that I could fly - And so I test it When did I get here? What's with the white sheets? I don't need medicine Medicine can't fix me Blur, it's all a blur I think, I think I jumped No, no wait, I was pushed I don't remember, I can't I can't remember Love, why do you do this to me?

Alcohol
Your lips, they're as red as cherries and as sweet as Sherry I'm pretty sure only a sip of them can get me drunk But darling, if it's your lips that I kiss I'm willing to get intoxicated

i'm high
My raybans still covered my swollen  eyes as I stepped inside the Rite Aid, in my pathetic attempt to hide from the neighborhood how much I had been crying. Tears of anger and some of despair and others of sheer exhaustion had coated my cheeks and worn the edges of my eyelids raw and reddened my corneas. I had stumbled out of my apartment in an effort to rid my body of feelings, assuming the brisk spring breeze could somehow sweep up everything I felt and whisk it away as quick as it had come. I squeaked past a couple ******** clad women with sunken eyes that bore holes into the glass of the cooler as they stared longingly at the rather large variety of malt liquors, the selection of soft drinks lesser than the collection of 40s I passed on my way to the back of the store. I distracted myself imagining the taste of the various soda pops, a wild cherry Pepsi dissolving into my daydream tongue right before it turned to Big Red Cream Soda. Diet Sunkist in hand, I stared at the ingredients on the orange soda bottle and reread the same words over and over as he interjected himself again and again. I made my way to the counter, feeling ever grateful for my sunglasses as more tears welled, and I cleared my throat before mumbling a way-too-weak-for-an-outgoing-girl hello. Before I knew it my distraction faded from view, and I turned left down Oak as his face peeked out in my rear view mirror in the majesty of the sunset. I shook off a feeling of admiration and reminded myself that even after all this time he still manages to disappoint me as he always has. I murmured something about how, "He ain't **** like I'm some bad ***** that doesn't give a **** about a dude. But then I remembered how deeply I had loved a man who never loved me back and never failed to prove it. My stomach began to drop, leaving me feeling as empty as the messages he had sent me in his pathetic attempts to convince me of ******** masked as the rhetoric he knew I wanted to hear, just enough to keep me around for his (admittedly) selfish reasons. I loved him and hated him all at once as I realized 4 months ago when I told myself (and him) that I was moving on, it was only my head that had, my heart still staggering, like a drunk stumbling off a belly full of cheap whiskey, And as I later drowned my sorrows in TV dramas and artificial sweeteners, I vowed to get that last piece back and really let go... I'll start tomorrow when I sober up.

When he holds me, I feel secure A constant in this everchanging world That allows me to exist – But when she holds me, My spirit flies high, And she gives me all the inspiration I need to be – And when he kisses me, I feel  unity and tender love, But when she kisses me, The caterpillars in my body Break free and form something beautiful, something new. And when he’s gone, I miss the constancy of being loved Rather than I miss him, But when she’s gone I miss all the overwhelming feelings we shared More than I miss her. And when we make love, He makes me experience A great lust with a great desire But when she makes love to me- My imagination is running wild An exciting fantasy And  everything in this world Seems to be designed only for us. I’m drunk on her while he tries to cure me

What is it like to have confidence beyond your gaze? What is it like to have unwavering courage, even on your worst days? I wish upon a star that I knew I wish upon a star that it would spring out of the blue Lowering my head to the ground and raising my hands to God Does the world really find this trend so odd? I guess most are just obsessed with the human 'bod' I'll submit myself to the will of the Lord If only we were connected by an ethernet cord I run about wishing I knew what He wanted me to do My ears feel deaf, I'm focused on you I try to change my focus My brain wonders, what about 'us'? Is there a potential future? When is it that I will truly feel mature? Why must I fear all that I think to do? Why must my heart and brain revolve around you?

Why Can't I Move On?
I smile at people for no reason. Just simply trying to be nice. I've done it a million times. But when i first saw you, my heart smiled for me. With love there is a price to pay and for you i'm willing to go into debt. I've searched everywhere for the definition of perfection. I believe i found it in your eyes. I've never seen something so beautiful. It's not my fault i love you, it's yours.

In lesbians with you, dear.
Your breath burnt like a white hot jealous lover's rage against my very core as you peppered love-drunk kisses down my neck. What lust we found tucked away in the secret, undiscovered places of our hearts where lover nor stranger had dared trod. You silenced my thoughts and electrified my mind with things no one could ever comprehend. You sent raging shocks through my spine, and made shudders and sighs erupt from my mouth like none other. What a pitiful thing it was for you to let me slip away. Rather, what a disgrace it was for you to trade me for poison. Selfish.
