Cigarettes
SF Couture Dec 2021
The staining aroma we so avidly inhaled in the reign of night
At tables made of glass that reflet the moonlight
The faint white illumination lit our misdeeds of younger
Keeps me reminiscent of days of simpler

Plagued & blessed by lack of consideration
No respect for damnation
We lived without hesitation to be free
To feel we truly needed to be

I sit alone now inhaling what was once shared and sought-after
Feeling but trying not to think-of those days of before
Watching storms roll through, making me feel spectator to memories of more
I retreat into myself, knowing those days are over

I could never imagine I'd look back on those days and call them simpler.
I keep running from what i can't see and it's lead me in circles
Cycle through the times to get to the next
A person watches a passing storm and reminisces over then and now

Hello Walls
SF Couture Dec 2021
Surrounded by empty parts of a forgotten past
Chasing myself around to end up in the same place as last
I spiral all night on a bed beaten by time and mistakes
Just to sleep in segments of new horror in a different time of space

Helplessly in love with the possibility that you may impossibly have what I'm looking for

Hounded by remedy crooks with cold coffee and platitudes

Abandoned by the church of the broken, to fall back into poisonous loving arms

Now I'm talking to the walls and crying with the windows
Spinning with the ceiling and alone in our bedroom
Remembering the promises made in a 101 proof haze
Living on borrowed time remembering yesterdays
The story of an addict spiraling down alone in the bedroom that was once shared
-inspired by the Willie Nelson song

Love & Drugs
SF Couture Dec 2021
Feels so good to be back with you
On top of the world again
They said you were no good for me
But i love you.
They gathered in a crowd
Grabbed and yanked at my arms to stop my meeting you
But you make me feel so free
So wild inside.
So in the moment
Not worried about a second that was or will be
Living purely in this tiny moment of now
When i'm with you
I'm so above the ground.

Sunday Service
SF Couture Dec 2021
Riding to communion,
Just to exchange drawing of sick scences.
It was hard to sneak flirts,
without your brothers seeing.
They'd never suspect good friends,
not in the Baptistery.
How could such a well to-do family make such a little monster for me?
How could they call us sick and twisted for feelings we didn't quite know?

How much farther could we truly go,
I'm grasping to turn back now.
They're hot on our trail,
it's too late for that though
The pitchforks are near.

They've torn us apart,
let us forget who we are.
It's been ages since I've seen you,
but I still have these scares.

These memories,
these feeling,
they keep dragging me back.
If I can't have you,
then please, please just let leave me on my track.
I can't keep chasing these feelings you've given, they've said it'll **** me.

I keep trying and trying to replace your sick effects,
but it keeps me craving for what I can't have yet.
But your not just somebody, you're much more to me.
Your'e the root of my suffering,
my impossible dream.

I still hate myself,
i truly do.
Because if you came back tomorrow,
I'd still leave with you.
An experience of forbidden love. For those that have been in it's grasp, it's not hard to imagine. A combination of memories.

Kissing Strangers
SF Couture Dec 2021
Disturbingly beautiful
Fearfully eager
Cold hearts on fire
In a room of ecstasy

Dangerous fixations
Wicked temptations
Confined in our sins
Engulfed in the flames

Animal in your eyes
Feeling your feral gaze
Devouring my light
Holding me to the flame

Blood-red love in our veins
Whisper sweet nothings
Hollow and shiny
Dazzling my foolish dreams

Push into my heart
Sink into my soul
Take me with you
Wherever you go

Shine your sun on me
Melt me with your glow
Leave me in a puddle
Of desire and vow

Devour me whole
Shake my steady ground
Strip my soul
For you
I am bound

Life of Love
SF Couture Dec 2021
Improperly inviting
Mutually corrupt
Soulfully repulsive
Wickedly tempting

Hesitantly falling
Inadequately open
Eagerly fearful
Lovingly ready

Sitting worthlessly
Sulking desperately
Thinking hatefully
Hurting intimately

Facing reality
Clinging dreamily
Losing stability
Loving lonely
A quick read of the evolution of a relationship told through both the poem

— The End —
