sometimes people have such a profound effect on you and you absorb all their negative vibes and it hurts your brain.. just sayin'
Hold me, The cold me, Tell me what you told me. See me, Free me, But please never flee me Charm me, Warm me, Oh but please, do harm me. Because you feel me, The real me, Your property to peel me. Hate me, Wait for me, It's not just my fate for me. Drown me, Don't you frown at me, At my open gown and me. **** me, please **** me Have that rill on me, If you will please, Have blood spill me, Your ***** fill me, Have my spine chill me, But please, after this, **** me!

In the thick of sticky summer heat A voice that still makes my heart skip a beat Run my tongue over the sound of your name Knowing nothing could ever be the same Your love was motion sickness on a highway Your love was a red card for foul play The double yellow lines we once sped by Made a hole in my heart for you to occupy Now that hole has become a shallow grave Everyday, a vast emptiness I stave More than anything, I miss your eyes Or how for once, I needed no disguise In my mind we get to roleplay You say through the night you'll stay We both wake with sun on our skin My fingers trace the outline of your grin But I wake with no sunshine near The dark emptiness only brings fear Every day is a cycle I can't break My life is shallow and fake Though you've left, I'm glad you came Every cherry tree still speaks your name Part of me wishes you'd hold me once more Whisper that I'm who you adore This summer I hope you find someone new I hold no misconceptions - we're through I'll always keep you near my heart Now and forever, together or apart

your body is poetry in a language I have always wanted to become fluent dripping in platinum, your lips steel-boned I hear a quartet commanding me agave forms in your sulci and pours out with every breath of your exhale there's a constellation in your pupils you are the very moon itself and I am earth in perigee, my tides rise to greet you every strand between us twists and weaves unbroken helixes that connect but never touch you shine and I can't pull my eyes away from the contours of your cupid's bow you move in slow motion towards me

I can be iron and steel, built of bricks a stone tablet front you've etched into now left standing like a memorial dome an outline recognizable and familiar this fallout doesn't scare me and never has imprinted blackened ghosts lay at my side nuclear shadows of what we had said long before the plutonium sparked I'll be left standing, though worse for wear but even radiation can be cleaned with time like the decades you both gave and took and the love that both healed and destroyed

I have often wondered, since my birth what is my body worth? does the outside count more than in? humans are all born of sin-- kavanaugh weinstein trump treat women as objects to dump is my body for their hungry eyes? will they undress my sweet disguise? aware that my body is not my own aware of my safety when I am alone please don't think I could ever be yours please don't harass me and shout out slurs is an ** worth less than an xy? how have we all turned a blind eye?

pain can be a muse, too it's twinge always familiar for me that it begins to feel like home and I gladly let it consume me * It means I'm alive, * I remind myself to use it fill a canvas with an empty heart remember what beauty looks like even when blindfolded * and I remember, * in the darkness I can still find your lips on mine feel your weight against me hear breath and words on my neck * pain can be a love, too * because without one there cannot exist the other so I'd rather take them both than never experience either

Ache
Your silver tinsel smile Warm breath against my neck Lips parted and I can almost taste you Bubbles line champagne glasses Their edges soft as skin The needle work Your fingertips sew Against my arm Like rain drops on A golden window pane And a dull heart ache At the bottom of my stomach Pulling me under

**Old Habits die heard, Good Morals live long, if it’s written it’s poem, if it’s sang it’s song, hold strong, at the same time be ready to let go, can’t escape our own cliches, no matter how far we go, see how the rhythm written is a dancer with no answers from the Muse, well imagine the passion of being trapped in something as strong as you, hold strong, at the same time be ready to let go, can’t escape our own cliches, no matter how far we go, and we go, from the ends of the Earth, to the beginning of this New World... -from THHT Vol. 3 ∆ Aaron LA Lux ∆**

RECORD: ****** KILLER FROGMAN: TALKING HEArDS . . . He went down the steps and walked backwards into the desert; three-tree places, two-tree. The back door of The Lab Tor open and they foiled out. He cried out. They fell in squacks, they fell crackwards, they tumblrd over The Word into the data. The instruments were empty and they chortled at him, trains-frogrified into a thought and a mind, and he stood . . . his body far away and absent, letting his words do their re-inking tic. Could he hold up a hand, and tell them he had spent ninetbeen thousand years learning this tic and others, tell them of the instruments and the words that had tested them? Not with his mouth. But his read deadhead could tell its own blue taile . [. . You do not thrill with your mouth. One who thrills with their mouth has forgotten the cage of their selfse. You thrill with your throughts. .] -- Stephen King, Frogman . . I realized I was Laughing. I had been crying all along . } -- Roland Deschain, Tacky Frogman's Frogman Magenta: You thrilled them?                 But I thought you shneeded them.                 They shneeded you. Riff Raff: THEY DIDN'T SHNEED ME!                THEY NEVER SHNEEDED ME! STOP: TURN THOUGHT

The Letter-Ing: thrill'em with laughter
it drips from lips too hot to touch the sound remains but the words have left his eye's sweat their egg yellow cries the water sways while the lyrics go hair that is an explosion into her blue puddly stare all that is gravity keeps it there

Hope I was Right. (not left) (Okay, that was lame)
You were my rock my shoulder boulder eroded over time by mental health that crept into the room by stealth but remember all we talked about you were the foundation the building blocks the "we can do this". Navigate the spell of despair bear the insignia with pride dispel and expel the mental scars to bare we were a team dude you were my rock in the storm we were shorn from the same cloth you and I. Never ones to shelter from the thunderstorm arms outwards, dancing in hedonistic pleasure revel in the present and like Leftfield said: Release The Pressure. We were Gods mate, legends in our own time I am left to decipher why man why you felt so alone you couldn't reach out to family, to a friend and have a good cry; I would've held you mate like you held me that day. I had a call from an unknown number I picked it up in random wonder to be told your body was found this morning attached to a home-made rope feet in shadow by your painted awning utterly gutted my brain waves disrupted that my Sifu, my Teacher, My Friend life was suddenly spent. I just sent a letter of poems for you to read with my consent. I feel lost. I feel broken. The demons we talked about I've kept them in control now out of control the devils have awoken. You were my friend like a brother from another mother I am left to wonder where are you now but know now that your pain has ceased there will always be a jigsaw piece of the blue sky missing; go with God my friend and forever rest in peace.
