love poem
"where love is a wave that splashes on the sand"

when a heart
loves
the stars surrender
to the heavens,
the moon catches her breath
and the avenues
of silence become
voice. i follow the
path to my love,
i die for him,
i live for him,
like a spartan
in the heat of battle,
like a flower in the
mist.

its so easy
to place the blame on
others
the others you hate

the blame for our mistakes
our sadness
our insignificance

but is it really them

or is the smoking gun
in
our own hands

He called me perfect,
and for a moment
all of my flaws disappeared.

I once loved something
that was filled with evil.

And that scares me, more than anything.

I told him I was tired
He asked, "of what?"
I said, "Everything"
He told me to erase it from my mind
"Including us?" I asked.

Did she save you...
Pick up your pieces and fit them back together oh, so perfectly?

Did she save you?
Or were you just too afraid to be alone?
maybe we feel so empty
because we leave pieces
of ourselves with the people we once loved
i left my heart with you

The decision was final
But it wasn't mine.

An empty womb
An empty tomb

Not sure if it was their death
or mine?

F*ck me over

Lick my lips
Cradle my face
Gaze into my eyes
And tell me I'm safe
